If I could give these more than five stars, I would. As a mom of a 7-year-old autistic son (Level 2) with ADHD, high support needs, and sensory processing disorder, I know firsthand how rare it is to find a product that truly meets our needs. These Loops aren't just helpful — they are transformational. From the moment we tried them, I noticed a shift. My son, who usually struggles with sensory overload in crowds, classrooms, and even while watching media at home, visibly relaxed. His entire body language softened — calmer, steadier, and so much more at ease. His words? "They feel cool, like earbuds!" — which matters when you’re 7 and desperately want to blend in, not stand out. Bonus? They fit perfectly for both him and me (an adult who is also super sensitive to uncomfortable headphones). I usually can’t tolerate earbuds without immediate achiness, but these? Total comfort — a quiet, gentle hug for the senses. Important to note: We had previously tried Flare Pods, but my son has significant sensory sensitivities and could not tolerate the feel of the silicone inserts or the necklace they attach to. With Loops, it’s the complete opposite — no sensory issues at all. They’re lightweight, stay securely in his ears, and don’t trigger any discomfort, even with extended wear. In real-world use, these have become an essential part of our daily life: - At school: His teachers and classmates noticed too. One day, during the hardest part of the school day (the last hour, when overstimulation usually peaks), he sat calmly focused on his work — something we had never seen before. - In public: No more meltdowns from loud environments. - At home: Watching movies or playing games is now peaceful instead of overwhelming. The only small challenge is how tiny and lightweight the case and Loops are — they’re easy to misplace. We’re working on a solution (maybe attaching the whole case to a necklace), but honestly, it’s a tiny tradeoff for the huge benefit these bring. If you have a neurodivergent child — or if you yourself struggle with sensory overload — please, please try these. They've given us access to moments of peace that I used to only dream about. And in a world that isn’t built for our kids’ nervous systems, that is priceless. Thank you, Loops, for making something that helps my son not just survive his day — but actually enjoy it. Read more
I bought the Loop Engage Kids 2 ear plugs for my 8 and 10 year old children, both of whom have ADHD. These ear plugs have made a big difference in their ability to focus, especially in noisy environments like school. They help reduce background noise without blocking out important sounds like the teacher’s voice. Both kids said they feel more calm and less overwhelmed, and they actually like wearing them. The fit is comfortable and adjustable, and the design looks cool enough that they don’t feel self-conscious wearing them. The case is small enough to throw in a backpack, but be careful not to lose it. Overall, these have been a great purchase. They are high quality, kid-friendly, and really effective. I highly recommend them for any parent looking to help their child manage focus and sensory challenges. Read more
Got these for my partner because her ears are super small. The smallest size works well without hurting her ears and they stay in place. She can wear these comfortably. She can hear perfectly fine with them in, she said they cut out a lot of the background noise that overstimulates her- especially because I always have to have a fan running. The only negative she has expressed is that she doesn’t know how loud to talk with them in because her voice sounds weird and really loud to her. Comfortable for daily use, easy to clean. Would highly recommend! She’s extremely happy with them. Read more
I purchased these for my kid who has a difficult time in sports, and they are an absolute hit! Aside from the fact that they have a very discreet profile, they are very comfortable (I tried them myself before I gave them to him), and they stay in place perfectly. I mean I had him jump, run, spin, laugh maniacally and yell, and they didn't budge lol the XS tips worked perfectly for him. They sound like you are under water, without silencing everything. You can definitely hear yourself louder, which I heard means you are using the correct size tip (I used medium, which is the biggest size in these). Overall he absolutely loved them. The cost is a little higher than we would've liked originally, but they are worth every dime! Because he is in the xs size, I can see him using them for a while with the size options that came with it! I also purchased the wire thing that attaches them together, so they wouldn't get lost.

These ear plus are very effective in blocking out background. They are perfect for the classroom. You can still hear the teacher and block out others. They were very easy to put in and stayed in place and are durable. Totally worth the purchase! Read more
I got these for my son to use in his Kindergarten class, and they’ve been a great help. He can still hear his teacher, but they take the edge off when the classroom gets loud or when other students are having big emotions. I got him a magnetic earplug lanyard and a small coin purse clipped to his backpack, so everything stays together and is easy for him to manage. The fit is comfortable for his smaller ears. We just used the XS silicone ear tips (or whatever they’re called) that came in the box. These have made a noticeable difference in keeping him from getting overstimulated. I’d highly recommend them for younger kids who need a little extra quiet anywhere. I even put a carabiner on the coin purse so we can take them wherever, whenever, and not lose them. Read more
