Making Hearing Aids Cool

Once the initial shell shock wore off, and we started to get all of the logistics under control, I thought I'd look online for things to spice up hearing aids for kids. So, off the Etsy I went - and I was not disappointed! Here are some of the awesome accessories for kids to keep things fun!

Pilot Caps
These are not only cool, but super useful for very young kids. Lightweight caps that cover the ears, and tie under the chin, to keep them from taking them out. Since O isn't even 4 months old yet, it's not really easy to explain why he needs to keep them in. I definitely think we'll need to get a couple of them!

Coloured Tubes

Replacement coloured tubes! These tubes connect the device to the ear mold (the foam bit that sits in the ear). Inexpensive ways to brighten up the hearing aids, and are easy to swap out!

Tube Twists
Colourful twists that wrap around the tube, and come in multi-colour, sparkly, and bright colours! Again, easy to swap out to keep things fun, and even available in seasonal colours like black/orange for Halloween, and green/red for Christmas!

Hearing Aid Clips
These clips have bands to wrap around the hearing aids, and fun clips to attach to the back of the shirt. This way, they won't get lost on the playground!

The internet is going to be a dangerously tempting place...
