Headphones for an 11 year old

[walsh366]

My 11 year old daughter is struggling to find headphones to fit her. The headphones designed specifically for children are too small, and the adult ones too large. She has tried ear buds but they keep falling out, and the loop over the ear ones are too uncomfortable. Do any parents have any suggestions for headphones that will carry her into teenage years.

Thanks
Sarah

I have been quite impressed with my daughter's Urban Ears, for which I think we paid about 40 quid on Amazon. Cool colours as well 🙂

My 11-year-old grand-daughter is still happily usine the Ultimate Ears Loud Enough in-ears that I bought her a few years ago. They're volume limited as well. Only down side is that for some odd reason they're not labelled L&R but easy enough to come up with your own solution.

Keep her volume limited to protect her hearing, in my opinion.

Sarah, just try the various ear bud sizes to keep them in. If the stock ones don't work try eBay for some cheap replacements, they may be smaller.

My 13 yr old daughter is using the soundmagic e10 and loves them. They come with a variety of size buds.
