Can the ear pads be pulled off by a three year old. This is the problem I am having.

My triplets have been using them since they were 3. They have destroyed all other ones we've had but not these! So far they are pretty indestructible. Shouldn't be a problem for you at all.

My daughter is 3 and son is 6. They love their headphones and have used them on the plane a few times. TThey are great. The only problem I have is that the kids can easily switch to parent mode. You can tell they have done this because the colour of the lights on the ear pieces changes although this. Is only helpful if you are actually constantly looking at your child. I think a redesign is needed for this aspect.

haven't had this problem, maybe you need to change sizes. there are kits out there but they'll include the earbud covers, assume the rings are in there.

Yes---I am very happy with this product, and there is only one major drawback. The ear pads, should they somehow become detached are darn near impossible to put back

No problem with 7 year old. I think would work for 2 year old but not 100% sure. My 13 and 15 year olds use them. The ear piece pushes up pretty far.

They have a tendency to loosen up over time......you might need to wear a headband to assist......great sound thoughWww.

They are not removable but they are able to move a little bit to fit a childs ears.

I would say possibly, depending on the kid...The range of size in the distance for the ears is pretty good. My 2 year old is just now really enjoying them, he used to pull them off... So if your kid will wear a hat, then the head phones may work... They do definitely cut down on outside noise...

I just examined mine pretty thoroughly, and I see no evidence of any asymmetry going on with the pads. They are somewhat of an oblong shape, but that is the same with both....Maybe yours are defective in some way? I would call Philips, maybe you could ask them how you would go about replacing these earpads as well, since there appears to be no way to do it.....

when they are powered up, the button must be pressed on one set to activate the pairing. they are then voice activated to communicate. i dont think it would be a problem for a 10-12 year old to use them. the sets i have are not adjustable, so i am not sure how the fit would be on a 10-12 year old. these hurt my ears after 2-3 hours of continuously wearing them.

Yes, easily. You just twist and remove one of the earpads. Two AAA batteries--must be the rechargeable kind, though.I should add that while this wasn't a problem with mine, one of the channels going bad was. I replaced the headphones with new ones, using the base unit from the remanufactured one, and haven't had a problem since.

Give it a shot. Buy some kids headphones so the volume won't go too high. I was surprised when my kids were able to use them at 4 and 2.

My son is 4 and I don't think is head is too much bigger than it was when he was two so I would say they would be ok. If your child isnt fond of having things on his/her head I would try to find a smaller pair. The ear piece on these are like studio head phones but child size. I would suggest, if they dont like things on their head, to just pick up some little ear buds or regular sized over the ear headphones. Here are links to two other headphones to look at. I havent tried these two myself, but i looked at the reviews and they were mostly good. I think these would be good for two year olds who do not like head gears or big bulky ear pieces. http://www.amazon.com/Panasonic-RP-HT21-Lightweight-Headphones-Port/dp/B00004T8R2/ref=sr_1_22?ie=UTF8&qid=1395872678&sr=8-22&keywords=childrens+headphones http://www.amazon.com/Sony-MDR-222KD-Childrens-Headphones-Black/dp/B00172T3Q2/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1395872608&sr=8-7&keywords=childrens+headphones

I bought it for my six-year old, who's autistic. They were a bit too big on his head - they fit, but wanted to ride lower than he liked. Also, he wound up breaking them in about a day, when he twisted the individual phones around and popped them out of the frame. (And then pulled them so hard the wires came out.) That's not technically the headphones fault, but that was the fastest we've ever had him break a set of headphones.

I don't think they would cancel out all the noise, but I do think your child should be able to hear whatever is being played over the noise of the plane. The pads cup the ears pretty well.

The headband (not the ear pads) CANNOT be replaced. I learned the hard way. Wires for the drivers run through the headband and there is no way to replace it without detaching the wiring. So unless you feel comfortable completely disassembling and re-wiring (soldering) the drivers, it's not possible. The ear pads, on the other hand, are very easy to replace.

connected to the ear pieces are metal frames that allow you to pull them down....maybe an 1and1/2 inches at most....the actual part that sits on your head is not adjustable...its sort of a hard plastic
