Description
Childrens hearing can be very sensitive. Some sounds can be overwhelming at times and make them feel stressed and anxious. Dont worry, Calmer Kids are here to help! Calmer Kids reduces the most annoying sounds and helps them focus on the important ones. Humans can hear lots of different sounds. We can put these sounds in a line from low to high based on their frequency. For example, thunder would be a low frequency sound and a bird tweet would be a high frequency sound. Your voice sits in the middle of these sounds. We call these mid frequencies. Mid frequencies are where the most stressful noises can be found such as classroom/playground noise and alarms. This is what Calmer Kids helps to reduce. Calmer Kids is made from a safe, soft and durable silicone which comes in three colours (Red, Blue and Yellow). Its discreet design means they can wear Calmer Kids without feeling self-conscious about having them in their ears. Most people wont even notice they are wearing them! They can be worn anywhere including at school, in the playground, travelling, watching television or on the games console without reducing their awareness of the environment. They improve relaxation, concentration and reduce stress and irritable feelings. Calmer reduces stress by removing distortion that would usually trigger the human fight or flight response. While this response was a vital part of our evolution to alert us to the slightest sound or threat, in todays modern world where we no longer need to be alert to the snap of a twig, this added resonance is loading us with unnecessary stress. Sound sensitivities and Autism: Hyper-sensitivities (over-responsiveness) and hypo-sensitivities (under-responsiveness) to a wide range of stimuli are often things that autistic children find challenging. These can include sensitivities to sounds, smell, touch and taste. As Calmer reduces frequencies between 2 kH-8 kHz irritating noises are reduced to a much more manageable level.
