Description

Alpine Muffy Kids Ear Muffs are over-ear hearing protectors designed for children aged 5 to 16 years. They help reduce exposure to loud noise in everyday environments while remaining lightweight and comfortable for extended wear. With a reported SNR of 25 dB, they are suited to situations such as classrooms, schoolyards, study areas, parties, parades, fireworks displays, concerts, and car or motorcycle races. They can also help lower background noise in busy settings, supporting focus and concentration.

Design and comfort

The earmuffs use an adjustable, soft-lined headband to accommodate a range of head sizes within the recommended age group. Their lightweight 174 g construction is intended to reduce pressure during use, while multiple foam layers around the ear cups help provide comfort, fit, and a consistent seal. The outer plastic layer is designed for easier cleaning, and the foldable construction makes the earmuffs simple to store or carry between home, school, and travel.

Sound reduction details

These earmuffs have frequency-dependent attenuation, with stronger reduction in the mid to high frequency range. Reported mean attenuation values include 24.9 dB at 500 Hz, 34.8 dB at 1000 Hz, 31.3 dB at 2000 Hz, 32.8 dB at 4000 Hz, and 29.6 dB at 8000 Hz. This profile supports general hearing protection in noisy environments where higher-frequency sounds can be prominent.

Care and included items

The earmuffs measure 12.1 x 9 x 11.3 cm and are available in Pink, Mint, Yellow, and Blue. Each pack includes 1 x Muffy Kids Earmuffs and 1 x storage bag or Protect&Go carry case. For maintenance, clean with a damp cloth using lukewarm water and mild soap, and inspect the ear pads regularly for wear. For best performance, ensure a proper seal around the ears, as glasses may reduce sound protection by creating a gap.
