Finally, a set for under 5
This set is wonderful--best I've seen for little heads. It really does fit 2 year-olds (unlike most other "kid" headphones), and my 5 year-old loves them, as well (we are going to order a second pair).

This set is wonderful--best I've seen for little heads. It really does fit 2 year-olds (unlike most other "kid" headphones), and my 5 year-old loves them, as well (we are going to order a second pair). They are sturdy and comfortable, with padding around the ears. They could also fit older children until their ears started being closer to adult size (the padding is the only thing stopping these for working for an adult since the padding doesn't sit around the ear for adults, but ON parts of the ear--the headphones themselves are plenty big enough when you adjust them). Definitely worth $15-20 to not have headphones for trips that fall off or have to be fiddled with every 2 minutes.

I purchased these headphones for my 15 month old for plane trips since we travel quite a bit. They work perfectly for him to watch videos on my Ipod Nano, and he actually leaves them on! They're soft for his little ears, and they adjust to fit him perfectly. I also appreciate the volume control that prevents the sound from getting too loud (although I just adjust the sound on the ipod, and lock it so my toddler can't adjust the volume).
I would highly recommend these headphones to anyone looking for something to fit a young child. As far as durability goes, they have held together well, however, I've only had them for a couple of months, so I don't know the long-term durability.

These are wonderful because they adjust to fit a kids head but there is nothing small about the quality or sound. I love these things. They have lasted longer than any pair of headphones my kids have used.

My four year old needed headphones for his DVD player. Kid sized head phones seemed like the perfect thing.
They look great and are comfortable. The plush ear pads help block out ambient noise. The size is good.
My biggest problem is that the cords are so thin. For something designed for kids, they should have thicker, more durable cords. My son broke two sets of cords in a year. (I tried soldering it back together, but the wires are so thin, it didn't last long).

After researching headsets for my 5.5 yr old, I bought this set and the Griffin myphones. I thought we could compare them, and if we liked both, one set could be for my 17 month old, too. After two weeks, my 5 yr old and I both prefer this set. It has a wider adjustment range, (fits the toddler AND fits me, an avg.-headed woman, but doesn't fit larger-headed husband) The sound quality is excellent, the plastic seems durable and flexible, and should withstand moderately rough use.
The options for two ways of controlling volume is particularly nice, b/c my son mostly listens to audio books, but also listens to music sometimes. The flexibility is great, b/c other headsets "volume limiters" just lower the overall volume, thus causing the spoken word or quieter songs, soft music (esp. lullaby style music) to not get loud enough to hear.
Before purchasing this headset, I called Kidz Gear on the phone to ask specifically about the decibel restriction issue above. I was promptly answered by a friendly, polite man with plenty of good information and the willingness to explain it all. Customer service seemed excellent, should I need help in the future.
I am a research-nut and not very easy to please. Despite these qualities, I would buy this again and would recommend it to others.

These headphones were perfect for our 3-year old on a long airplane trip. They were easy to adjust and fit perfectly. They were not uncomfortable at all, and the the individual volume adjustment is perfect for watching DVDs when more than one headset is used to ensure their volume is not too high (as these headphones do a great job of blocking out external noise). Pair this up with the Sony DVPFX-930 9" DVD player and Case Logic PDVK-9 DVD case and you have a great travel set for the kids.
Only cons: be careful as the wire leaving the headset could be a little more sturdy.

These headphones fit my 2 year old (and my 11 year old)just right. She loved wearing them from day 1. The volume control on the line is excellent for easy adjustment.

We've had these headphones for about 2 months now and LOVE THEM!! Beside the fact that they're a wonderful product, the Kidz Gear company has an A+++ customer service dept. Case in point...strangely one of our headsets suddenly stopped working so I contacted Kidz Gear. And without ANY hesitation or question they apologized for the inconvienance and shipped out a new pair. Two days later we received them! So for that alone I applaud them! Way to go Kidz Gear!!

Thanks to other reviewers I bought these for my 2 year old for a flight with his dad to visit grandma. They had 6 hours of flights with layovers and these headphones did a great job of keeping my son happy and busy watching a movie when he got to be a little too bored/wiggly to read or do crafts. They fit him well, and he immediately got a big grin on his face when he realized he could hear Lightning McQueen instead of the loud plane.

I bought these for my 5 and 3 year olds. They worked great. Stayed on their heads and they love the volume control. Only thing that would make them better would be to be more easily stored for travel and if they had a retractable cord and my 3 year old would get twisted up in the cord.
