Going back to school is a busy and exciting time for children, parents, and teachers. If you have a child who wears hearing aids or cochlear implants, it can be a bit worrisome too.
There are a lot of activities going on each school year including gym class, field trips and sports games that can cause hearing instruments to get lost or damaged. We know teachers worry about damage and loss on their watch as well, because they are aware of how expensive these little fragile devices can be. A hearing aid holder can be the perfect solution for active kids.
Ear Gear makes hearing aid holders that include a protective sleeve, a cord, and a hearing aid clip that can connect to your child's clothing. This ensure the device is not lost if it falls out.
Make sure you send Ear Gear along to school with your child and installed on their hearing aids. Ear Gear is an acoustically transparent spandex sleeve and will not distort the sound coming into the hearing aid in any way. However, the absorbent sleeve wicks away moisture, dirt and dust -- perfect for sports or if your child gets stuck out in the rain on a field trip. Ear Gear is also available in corded models to prevent the hearing aids from falling to the ground or getting lost completely.
