Today on things I google for RP: Whether earplugs are safe for babies.

...now i'm curious as well

...same

Apparently yes, you just have to get the right size

Lyall will try until he makes some that fit comfortably

yeah, I was gonna say they'd need to come in size 'pretty dang small'

my cousin uses noise canceling headphones on her one-year-old

Basically I was checking if there was an age under which it had to be more of an earmuff style

Apparently you can get baby sized earplugs for things like fireworks though

and concerts apparently

The silicone putty ones can be made smaller, and mold to the ear. I have abnormally narrow ear canals and split one of them in half for a pair. I've seen kids ones, no idea if baby safe.

I've mostly seen kids and toddlers at (metal) concerts wear those earmuff noise cancellers but I think that's also because it makes it easier for parents and maybe security? to see if they're still on

because earplugs may fall off or be taken our because they're uncomfortable

I'd just worry about swallow hazard

(The concern with earmuff style ones in this case is they are going on a baby mermaid..._

why is that a concern? would the baby's head not be human shaped? Because earmuff style can be very airtight if that's a concern :|9

Mostly just whether they'd work normally under water or just be awkward with water

Plus it came down to whether the tag was going to be "ask the person who was offering to make a smaller size" or "ask the person who was offering to make an entirely different item"
