Califone First Stereo Headphone Lightweight for Young Children Blue Reviews
These are the perfect size for preschoolers. The only concern, is the black covering came off the ear piece but I was able to get it back on.
For its target age group that's probably ok. Just to clear things up, these are just child sized headphones that have been "hardened" to resist abuse. Very nice. Overview-. Cons-. The cups can be slid up or down on the support rail a couple of inches for the older kids or left up for the younger ones.
It reduces exterior noise but does not substantially eliminate it. It has good reproduction of low tones, serviceable reproduction of mid tones but poor reproduction of high tones. This reduces the amount of wire hanging around to get tangled or broken. Also from the plug to the cups there is only 1 wire. There are no control mechanisms and other features, just headphones. The actual contact surfaces seem to be a vinyl like material that is easy to clean, seems to wear well. Tangle resistant wire.
The wire to the other cup is built into the headband. Its not for serious music listening, its for kids who really wouldn't know the difference. The cup is filled with some type of foam, this helps to isolate outside sounds, though its not anything like dedicated noise cancelling or ear muffs. To recap.
The wire that connects to your sound device is key, first off its reinforced with extra thick shielding, the ends are reinforced as well. Poor high tone reproduction. If you have kids and you want to get them their own headphones so they stop destroying yours these are just the ticket. Conclusion-. The sound quality is OK.
I have a 2 and a 5 year old and they fit both fine. The actual acoustic membrane is protected by a plastic grid so if the kid takes them off and starts poking around inside they can't damage them. These are just medium-low quality membranes in a hard package sized for little ones. This helps prevent tangling and snagging and breaking. You can hear voices fine, just don't expect to enjoy your opera too well.
Pros-. They seem to have a good size range. Hardened design, very durable. That's about it. The exterior construction is a decent plastic, light and tough, can withstand a good amount of abuse.
Some exterior noise abatement.
I highly recommend these for your child as they were made specifically for young children. We purchased these for our 20month old for a very long flight to use with a dvd player. They are also the right size and cover the entire ear with very soft padding to stay on the ear better and fit smaller heads of toddlers (they are also adjustable to grow with your child). They worked great and our son actually kept them on his head. They are well built, light-weight, and are a great primary color (makes it more fun for kids). These also worked on the plane connected to the earphone jack for the on-plane movies so we were all peacefully watching a movie.
He absolutely loves them. I bought these headphones for my 19month old grandson to listen to classical music from his Mp3 player. They are perfect for him, just the right size and fit perfectly over his ears. Definately 5 stars, all the way around. The headphones are great plus the the service was outstanding. Very fast shipping too. He will sit and listen to the music for almost an hour, so they must be very comfortable for him too.
They can both put them on without assistance, and they love wearing them. I bought a set for each of my children; 2y and 5y. They are the perfect size for their little heads; they dont' slide off like other headsets do. I love them because now I can listen to my XM in the car and not have the DVD competing behind me.
