August is National Back to School Month! These days, gearing your kids up for school requires a whole lot more than scissors and glue! We'll cover options for providing hearing protection for students with hypersensitivity or problems focusing, for band and orchestra kids, and for children who swim at school, whether on a team or as part of a physical education program. We'll also share some of our favorite Dorm Room Survival Gear for those older kids headed back to college this fall.

If your child is overwhelmed by loud sounds, sensitive to noisy classroom settings, or simply has trouble focusing during tests, a pair of Child Ear Muffs will help block out all those distressing and distracting sounds. |
|
Out of all the child ear muffs we offer, the highest quality choice is the ReVO Child Ear Muff. Not only are they very well-made and effective, but they also come in 16 colors and patterns so your child can look cool while staying focused. |
|
For older kids who don't feel comfortable wearing ear muffs in front of their peers, foam ear plugs are an excellent solution for blocking disturbing noises. Ear plugs are perfect to help kids focus during exams and standardized tests! |
|
Natural Sound Musician's Ear Plugs aren't just for music: they're also excellent for turning down the volume without losing detail like voices. For kids with only a mild sensitivity to sound, these may work better than higher NRR foam ear plugs. |

Available in a standard size that's great for most little ears, these natural sound musician's ear plugs can turn down the roar of a marching band (which could cause lasting hearing damage) to a safe volume, without losing sound clarity. |
|
Another popular musician's ear plug, Alpine MusicSafe will let your child play to his or her heart's content without damaging those sensitive young ears. (Also an excellent choice for parents of children who practice their instruments at home.) |
|
Hearos Rock'n'Roll plugs cut the volume with only minimal distortion of sound clarity. Plus, they're a cool black color and come with a pocket-size carry case, and they're a very affordable option for back-to-school shoppers on a budget. |
|
While the ER-20, MusicSafe, and Hearos are all popular items, we have many other musician's ear plugs to choose from. Check out our Natural Sound Musician's Ear Plugs page to browse our full selection and find the perfect plugs for your child. |

A white noise machine is the perfect dorm room accessory to block out noisy neighbors and parties down the hall, so your college-age kid can create a calm auditory atmosphere for study and sleep. Also see our White Noise CDs. |
|
These slim speakers embedded in a super-soft fleece headband are the perfect way for dorm-dwellers to listen to music while sleeping without disturbing their roommates. Great for drowning out the rest of the noisy campus for peaceful sleep. |
|
The thinnest earphones in the world, Bedphones are designed especially for listening to music while sleeping. These earphones are ultra comfortable, even for those who sleep on their sides. Very cool look, too: great for listening anywhere! |
|
Sometimes, nothing beats a good pair of foam ear plugs when it comes to blocking out noises so you can focus, study, and concentrate. Pack contains a wide selection of plugs so your college kid can find the perfect ear plug for studying and sleeping. |
From all of us at EPSS, have a happy back to school season and a great school year!
Until next time, be safe and do the right thing.
