S&S Sound Buddies™ Kids Bluetooth Headband Headphones

Soft wireless headphones and a sleep mask in one playful animal headband! 

Sound Buddies™ give children a softer alternative to bulky headsets for movies, music and audiobooks. For a quiet rest, the band can also be lowered over the eyes and worn as a sleep mask.

• Simple controls: built-in volume control on the headband
• Nine characters: children choose a Sound Buddy that feels like their own
• Doubles as a sleep mask: lower the soft band over the eyes for rest time, keeping the nose and mouth clear

Comfort without the headphone squeeze

Traditional headphones press against small ears and feel awkward when a child leans into a pillow or car seat. Sound Buddies™ use a soft polar fleece band with slim internal speakers, so there is nothing rigid digging in while they listen.

From the back seat to bedtime stories

Pair the headband with a phone or tablet, pick their favourite story or playlist, and let their Sound Buddy come along for the ride. One charge covers up to 8 hours of listening, and the character design makes it easy for children to recognise, pack and keep as their own.

Headphones that double as a sleep mask

When it is time for a quiet rest, lower the band from the forehead over the eyes. The soft animal headband can be worn as an eye covering with the audio switched off, so their familiar Sound Buddy becomes part of their wind-down routine.

An adult should check that the fit is comfortable and that the child's nose and mouth remain completely clear. Remove the band if it slips or feels uncomfortable. Never wear it while charging.

Good to know
