Kidz Children’s Earplugs for Swimming

As Seen In Join the Parents Who Finally Found Earplugs Their Child Actually Wears ★★★★★ Filter Reviews by Swimming & Ears Sensory & Focus Concerts & Events Service My 6-year-old had grommets after 4 ear infections in one year. ENT said no water in ears. Tried 2 other brands — both fell out at swim class. Kidz stayed in for 8 consecutive lessons. First ear-infection-free season in 2 years. Rachel Morgan / Trustpilot Daughter aged 8 had swimmer’s ear twice last summer. Coach recommended Kidz . 14 weeks of lessons since — zero infections. Stays in during diving and freestyle. The 2-lamella seal is clearly different from moldable putty. Sven Hartmann / Google Son aged 5 prone to otitis media. Paediatrician recommended waterproof earplugs for bathing. Tried 3 brands in 6 months. Kidz is the first that seals without falling out. 3 months in — no new infections. Claire Beaumont / Facebook Daughter is autistic, aged 9. Supermarkets and school assemblies triggered meltdowns weekly. Tried earmuffs — she refused them. Kidz is small enough she doesn’t notice them. Meltdowns down from ~3 a week to under 1 in 6 weeks. James O'Brien / Trustpilot Son aged 10 has ADHD, struggles with classroom noise. Teacher agreed to trial Kidz . After 4 weeks, his reading comprehension scores improved and he self-reports feeling less overwhelmed. Small enough that classmates don’t comment. Lena Fischer / Google My daughter has SPD, aged 7. Used to cry at shopping centres and restaurants. Kidz filters the edge off the noise — she can still hear us talking but the overwhelm stops. Changed our family weekends completely. Nadia Kowalski / Facebook Took my 7 and 9 year olds to a summer festival. Sound checks hit 105 dB on my meter. Both wore Kidz for 6 hours — never tried to remove them, no complaints. No ringing reported that evening. I won’t take them to an event without these again. Ben Allsopp / Trustpilot My son cried through every fireworks display for 3 years. This New Year’s Eve with Kidz he watched the full 20 minutes without distress — looking around, smiling. Stayed in even with all his movement. First time we’ve ever enjoyed it together. Ingrid Larsen / Google Took my son aged 8 to a Formula 1 race — peak noise 130 dB. Kidz were the only kids’ earplugs properly rated for that level. He wore them for 5 hours without a single complaint and still heard every word I said between races. Marco Rossi / Facebook Ordered wrong size for my 4-year-old. Contacted support — reply in under 3 hours. They walked me through the sizing photos, sent the correct pair next morning. No return required. Full resolution in under 48hrs. Exceptional. Hannah Price / Trustpilot Asked before buying whether Kidz was suitable for a child with grommets. Response within 2 hours with a detailed note from their product team. Purchased the same day based on that alone. They clearly know their product. Pieter van Berg / Google Ordered from Germany, arrived in 3 working days. Packaging clean, instructions included. Received a follow-up email after 5 days to check fit. My daughter has been wearing them for 6 weeks without a single issue. Sara Müller / Facebook All reviews are from real, verified customers.

The WHO estimates 1 in 3 young people are at risk of permanent hearing loss. 60% of childhood hearing damage is entirely preventable. A child’s hearing, once damaged, never fully recovers. A private paediatric audiology appointment costs over £150. A single BOLLSEN Kidz costs just 27p per use over 100 uses, less than a bag of sweets. For 27p, it’s not even a decision. Finally.

Why do Parents in 13 Countries Choose BOLLSEN Kidz Test Winner for Swimming, Concerts and Sensory Environments After over 1,700 tests, independent laboratories in Germany have confirmed: the Kidz filter technology reduces surrounding noise to an average of 24 dB — the highest-rated children’s earplug in its class. Your child’s ears get the protection they need, while still hearing voices and instructions clearly. The professional noise reduction is also effective against: Concerts, festivals, fireworks and sporting events above safe decibel levels; Swimming pool noise, splashing and underwater pressure; Sensory overload in classrooms, shopping centres and crowded public spaces; Engine noise on flights, long car journeys and high-speed trains. Designed for Children’s Ears. Not Shrunken Adult Ones. Comfortable Enough That Children Forget They’re Wearing Them Built smaller from the ground up — not scaled down from an adult mould. Medical-grade silicone adapts to your child’s ear canal shape. Once in, they forget they’re wearing them. Stays In During Swimming, Diving and Active Play Most kids’ earplugs fall out the moment a child dives. Kidz locks in with a waterproof 2-lamella seal — through freestyle, backstroke and poolside chaos. A small tab makes removal effortless. Your Child Can Still Hear You — Clearly Kidz filters harmful noise while keeping voices and instructions audible. The noise that damages is blocked. The communication that matters is not. Frequently Asked Questions About BOLLSEN Kidz Earplugs Are earplugs safe for children aged 3 and up? Yes. Kidz is made from medical-grade silicone that is BPA, PVC, latex and cadmium free — the same material standard used in surgical instruments. The design was specifically developed for children’s ear canals aged 3 to 12 and has been independently tested by German laboratories to ISO 4869. For children under 3, we recommend earmuffs rather than in-ear protection. Will Kidz stay in during swimming and diving? Yes. Kidz features a waterproof 2-lamella seal that locks against the ear canal wall — including during freestyle, backstroke and diving. It is specifically recommended for children with grommets (ear tubes) or a history of swimmer’s ear. For the most reliable fit in very small or large ear canals, we recommend our AR KI Tech ear measurement. Can my child still hear me while wearing Kidz ? Yes — and that is intentional. Kidz uses high-fidelity filtering that reduces harmful noise levels by an average of 24 dB while keeping speech, voices and instructions clearly audible. Your child will hear their swim instructor, their teacher and you calling them. What gets blocked is the noise that damages: loud music, crowd noise, machinery and traffic. How do I insert Kidz for my child? Gently pull the top of your child’s outer ear upward and back to open the ear canal. Insert the clean earplugs with a gentle twisting motion until the outer lamella sits flush with the entrance of the ear canal. Do not push them too deep. The removal tab makes it easy to take them out — your child can learn to do this themselves within a few uses. Are Kidz safe for children with sensitive skin or allergies? Yes. Kidz are made from medical-grade silicone and are completely free from BPA, PVC, plasticizers, latex, and cadmium — the most common contact allergens found in cheaper earplugs. If your child has known sensitivities to materials not listed here, please check with your GP before use. How long does one pair of Kidz last? Each pair is reusable up to 100 times. With daily use, that’s roughly 3 to 4 months from a single pair. Since medical-grade silicone retains its shape and resists dirt far better than foam, the fit actually improves slightly over time. Clean after each use with a damp cloth and mild soap, and store in the included aluminium case. What are the delivery terms? We offer free shipping.
