can these be used with a 6 month old? more so for blocking out noise at a wedding, on a plane, etc.

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 can't think of a good reason why not if they're over about 5-6. I wouldn't think they'd be for under 5-6 minimum.They are graduated bell shaped "pellets" with a thin plastic strip/cord running from one to the other. They really do block out the noise. I always keep a pair in my purse for travel and I've used them for a number of years now for sleep. They're wonderful!

Sure. These are essentially earplugs with built-in headphones. If you don't listen to anything, they still block noise effectively.

These are great at cancelling out noise - on planes. I would also worry about wrapping the cord around my neck in my sleep. Check your local noise ordinances, the police should be able to help quiet things down by 9 or 10 pm.

My wife actually uses them and she has an exceptionally large head. She says, yes they are tight to some degree or they wouldn't block out the sound, but not a burden to wear. You gotta get used to it. Some 3 year old may be willing to adapt others won't. But they do make your ears sweat in the summertime.

These top out at the recommended cut off to protect kids' ears. I don't know how well they'd be heard in a plane.

I strongly advise against the use of these for the purpose you suggested, if your flight is medium to long haul. Like all noise protection devices, these are heavily sprung for the reason of better noise dampening. The pressure on ear would be painful with increased time (&gt;2 hours) . Full rounded cups would be more comfortable (like pilots wear, racing pit crew, airport staff, etc..). Perhaps occupational types are better suited for your needs.

Hello,Yes, as long as you have attached them to a FAA approved device! My 6 year old son uses them on the plane all the time.

are you just looking for noise blockers? Check this link, many of these are available on Amazon: http://www.friendshipcircle.org/blog/2012/03/21/8-headphones-for-children-with-autism-and-auditory-processing-disorder/ We are happy with Kidz Gear and even bought a replacement when our son chewed the cable, but will not recommend it for a baby. The wireless version might be okay.

Haven't used them on a flight, but they'd probably be decent though they don't have any type of active noise suppression. While they do come with foam isolation tips, I use Comply isolation tips that seem to provide more privacy - they're another 20 bucks for 3 pair, but worth it IMO.

In a word, no. These are great for hearing protection, but the screaming infant is a different problem entirely. As far as hearing protection is concerned, the LOF earmuffs are pretty good for their size at blocking sound. They are also comfortable for long term wear. I've worn mine for several hours at a time at the gun range, both with additional ear plugs and by themselves. They were great for blocking the noise from magnum rifles and other guns in large quantities. As far as the screaming infant is concerned, these earmuffs will not protect you from parental indifference toward the noise, disturbance, and discomfort their child is creating for those seated around them. I understand how difficult it is for a child, let alone an infant, to sit still and quiet during a long flight. That being said, these earmuffs will do nothing to quell your desire to smack the taste out of the mouth of the parent who refuses to do anything about their noisy little angel. From that standpoint, you are left to rely on the beneficial effects of Jack Daniels, or whatever 'sleep aid' you prefer while flying.

Don't think so, but we use them (3) in our Children's Child Care a pretty noisy place... and I'm kinda' hard-of-hearing....

Yes but depending on the baby's age. The sound might be too loud that could make him uncomfortable and annoyed.

I have used these many times on airplanes. They block out a significant amount of the noise. I put on soft music at a very low volume and sleep soundly...or just turn on the noise cancellation circuitry and block out the constant whoosh of the aircraft flying through the air. I gave a pair to one of my sons who travels a lot and he now swears by them.

They don't block out ALL noise, but they definitely block a lot of noise. They don't mute everything though

They worked great for my 2 year old on the plane. When she got sick of wearing them on her ears the speaker part will lay flat so I could just put them around her neck and she could listen that way. You will need an adapter to plug into the airplane though.
