These are one of the first bone-conducting headphones for children. If you’re not familiar with bone-conduction headphones, let us fill you in. These sit on your cheekbone, not in or on your ear. There are several benefits to this. One is that you can then still hear environmental sounds – great for kids walking to school. The next benefit is that people with hearing loss can use them, and hear the audio playing. One school of thought is that they reduce hearing damage, but the jury is still out on that one. Both the cups and headband are cushioned, meaning our tester didn’t get ear ache, no matter how long they played. Speaking of endless use, the battery life is 22 hours, which should be more than enough for even the most avid user.This feature also works with POGS link cables. It's the cable that lets you attach one POGS headphone to another. The POGS headphone are engineered to adjust as the child grows. It comes with an adjustable headband sizes and you can adjust the headphone up to three different levels. When they arrived, the kids were excited to start using them. They loved them and we were very happy with the quality and finish of the headphones. They fold away nicely when not in use use or when travelling.

If your teen has been asking you for AirPods, but you’re not sold on the idea, these might be the solution. These earbuds are truly wireless, meaning they’re not connected to a device or each other. They come with a case, which also holds charge, so when they’re nestled in the box they’re charging (you then charge the box). The headphones themselves hold five hours of charge, and the box another 19 hours. The World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends 85dB as a safe maximum noise level for children for up to eight hours – that’s around the volume of heavy traffic. Some devices can go to 136dB when on maximum volume. Ouch. If you have forgetful kids – who doesn’t? – who don’t remember to charge their headphones, you can get a full charge on these in just two hours. As well as being wireless, you can use them wired, if your battery life is waning.The POGS headphones now are only available in The Netherlands. But if you would like to buy similar headphones for kids, try the JBL headphones for kids: https://amzn.to/2ZfP7zj Just like the headphones, the cables are built to last. It can happen though that they get lost or get twisted one too many times. Fortunately, all POGS cables are detachable for easy replacement if needed so you can still use your POGS headphones for a long time. These are no doubt better for older kids, as the controls are quite fiddly, requiring you to tap them the right amount of times to play/stop/control the volume and take calls.
