Tested by 50 families before it went on sale11 reasons she’ll keep them on
Soft ear protection for little ones, ages 1 to 4. So comfy she forgets she has them on.
See the 11 reasons ↓Why it matters
The kind of hearing loss you can actually stop
Loud noise harms little ears for good — it can’t be fixed. Fireworks hit 140dB. Lunaris brings it down to a safe level.

"She kept them on the entire flight to Malaga. A first for us."
"He genuinely forgets he's wearing them — which is the whole point."
"First bang, and she watched from my arms instead of crying."
"Took her a few days at home, then she loved them."
"I asked for the lab report and it was in my inbox the next morning."
Weddings, fireworks, busy places — the world is much louder for a little one than for us. Here are 11 simple reasons Lunaris helps. And one honest reason not to buy.
Reason 01 · comfort
So she keeps them on — instead of in your bag two minutes later
Why they stay on: gentle beats firm
Kids pull earmuffs off when they pinch. Lunaris is gentle — so she keeps them on.
"She kept them on the whole wedding. First time ever."
Reason 02 · protection
It protects hearing that doesn’t grow back
Protects hearing that doesn’t grow back
Loud noise can harm little ears for good. Lunaris makes loud things quieter, so her hearing stays safe.
"Took her to her first festival and didn't spend it worrying about her ears."
Reason 03 · she still hears you
It turns the world down, not off
How loud her world really is
It turns the noise down, not off. She can still hear you — and still hear the music.
"She still turned round when I said her name."
Reason 04 · materials
Soft where it touches her, solid where it counts
Soft where it touches her, solid where it counts
Soft cushions, soft cloth, nothing hard against her. That's why she forgets she has them on.
"You can feel the quality — nothing cheap or scratchy about them."
Reason 05 · grows with her
One pair, from her first birthday to her fourth
One strap, from 1 to 4 — no outgrowing it
One size, from age 1 to 4. Nothing to measure — and she won't grow out of them.
"Fits my 18-month-old and my 4-year-old both."
Reason 06 · she settles
In loud places, she settles instead of screaming
When it's quieter, she calms down — usually in about twenty minutes. A happy kid instead of tears.
"Asleep before the seatbelt sign went off."
Reason 07 · for families who go out
If you go out a lot, she needs her own pair
Out a lot? Festivals, weddings, fireworks, the football — one pair covers them all, so she comes too.
"We're festival people. Now she comes too, and stays happy."
Reason 08 · proven
Proven on paper — and in real life
Proven on paper — and in real life
Checked by a real lab. Used by 50 families for six weeks before we ever sold a pair.
"The lab report landing in my inbox is what sold me."
Reason 09 · honest
We’ll tell you the one thing they can’t do
Straight about what they do — and don’t
- ✓ Turn the noise down
- ✓ Stay comfortably on
- ✓ Let her still hear you
- ✗ Stop ear-pain on descent
(feed her on the way down)
One thing they can't do: stop ear pain when the plane comes down. Give her a drink on the way down. We'd rather tell you.
"Loved that they told me what these can't do, upfront."
Reason 10 · risk-free
Trying them can’t cost you anything
Try them. If she won't wear them, send them back within 90 days — we pay the postage. Two-year warranty too.
"Sent one pair back — refund was quick and they paid postage."
Reason 11 · real brand
A real brand, no games at the till
A first run of 800 — no fake timers
When they’re gone, we say so — and the next batch ships in March. No countdown clocks.
Real people, a real address, a real lab report. Only 800 made, and no fake timers. When they're gone, we say so.
"A real human replied the same day I emailed."
What actually changes
The night you're really buying
Without
- You spend the flight walking the aisle.
- You leave the wedding before the first dance.
- Fireworks end with her face in your shoulder.
- You brace for every loud room in advance.
With Lunaris
- She naps through the cabin drone.
- You stay for the first dance, together.
- She watches the fireworks from your arms.
- Loud rooms stop being something to survive.
Where you'll take them
Pick the day you're worried about
Every one is louder than it feels. Tap through.
The problem
Eighty-five decibels of engine drone, hour after hour. She's overwhelmed, she can't settle, and by hour two the whole row has an opinion about you.
With Lunaris
Takes the drone down to something she can nap through. Most children settle within about twenty minutes — and she still hears you beside her.
The problem
The music comes on, the room fills, and a small child hits her limit long before the first dance. You end up outside, missing the night you came for.
With Lunaris
Softens the floor so she can stay in the room with you — instead of the two of you in the car park.
The problem
She's thrilled about the fireworks — until the first boom, when she rips at her ears, cries, and buries her face in your shoulder.
With Lunaris
Turns the bangs into something she can watch from your arms, instead of hiding from.
The problem
Birthday parties, hand dryers, soft play — the loudest rooms she'll go in all year, and the ones she's expected to enjoy.
With Lunaris
Takes the edge off so a party stops being something to endure and goes back to being fun.
The problem
For some children the supermarket or a busy café is simply too much — and almost nobody says so out loud.
With Lunaris
A quiet dial-down she can keep in the changing bag for the days that need it.
What parents say
Reviews
Flying with a 2-year-old · 2 weeks ago
She wore them the whole flight
Flew Manchester to Malaga and she kept them on the entire way out — the first flight we haven't spent walking the aisle. She even napped on descent. Genuinely didn't think it was possible with her.
Sensory-sensitive 3-year-old · 1 month ago
First party he's stayed at the whole time
My son notices every sound and usually melts down at parties. He kept these on for his cousin's whole birthday and actually joined in. He forgets he's wearing them, which is the whole point.
GatheringsFireworks night · 3 weeks ago
Watched the whole display for the first time
Bonfire night has always ended in tears. The first bang used to send her straight into my shoulder. This year she watched the entire display from my arms. I nearly cried.

Took a few days, then brilliant
Honest review: it took her about three days of wearing them around the house before she'd leave them on out and about. Once she did, they've been brilliant. Just don't expect the first go to be perfect.
Everyday2 months ago
She fell asleep in the pushchair
Wore them at a busy street market and she fell asleep in the pushchair with them on. She never sleeps when we're out. Sold me completely.
Everyday3 weeks ago
We stayed for the first dance
At the last wedding we lasted an hour. This time she had these on and we actually stayed for the first dance instead of sitting in the car. That alone was worth it.
Wedding1 month ago
Really well made — one small gripe
Comfy and clearly good quality. My only gripe is the hard case is an extra — I'd have liked it in the box at this price. Still happy with the earmuffs themselves.
Everyday6 weeks ago
Asked for the lab report — got it
I emailed to ask for the lab report half-expecting to be ignored. Got the actual document back the next morning. That's the moment I bought. Rare to see a brand this open.

Long-haul, and she slept
Long-haul to see the grandparents. She wore them for take-off and the meal service and slept through the worst of the drone. Life-changing for how we travel now.

Supermarket trips are possible again
The supermarket was becoming impossible with all the noise. These take the edge off just enough that we can get the shopping done without a meltdown. Small thing, huge difference for us.
Everyday2 months ago
Return was painless
Bought two colours, one didn't suit my older one, sent it back. Refund was quick and they covered the postage. No hassle, no interrogation. That's how it should be.

Do exactly what they say
They do what they say and the fit is spot on. Wish there were more colour options, but the clay one is honestly lovely. Comfortable enough that she leaves them alone.
EverydayHonestly
They're not for everyone
A few reasons you might want to skip them. We'd rather say it now.
Side by side
Why not the $19 pair?
Lunaris vs the cheap pair
- Gentle — stays on
- Soft all over
- Lab-certified
- Fits ages 1–4
- 2-year warranty
- Often too firm
- Hard parts
- No lab report
- Outgrown fast
- No warranty
Honestly? Neither stops ear-pain when the plane lands — that's pressure, not noise. We'd rather tell you than sell you.
Still not sure?
The honest answers to what holds parents back
It feels like a lot for earmuffs.
For one loud afternoon, the cheap pair is fine. For three years of flights, weddings and fireworks — with a lab report and a two-year warranty — this is the pair you buy once. And you have ninety days to disagree.
What if she just won't wear them?
Introduce them at home for a few days first — most children come round quickly. If she doesn't, send them back and we pay the postage.
I've never heard of this brand.
Fair. A real address, a person who answers, a published lab report, ninety-day returns. We show everything because we haven't earned the benefit of the doubt yet.
Will they actually stay on?
That's the whole design — low clamp force and soft cushions. It's the first thing our fifty test families checked, and the reason cheaper pairs get pulled off.
The first run
A small batch, honestly made
Ninety days. No reason needed. Postage on us.
Try them at the flight, the wedding, the party. If your child won't wear them, send them back within ninety days — we pay the return postage and you don't owe us an explanation. Two-year warranty on top.
Before you buy
Questions
What if she refuses to wear them?
Some children take to them in minutes, some over a few days — that's normal, and it usually gets easier fast. Introduce them at home before the big day, not at the event itself. And if she still won't, that's what the ninety-day return is for.
What are they made of?
Soft microfibre over deep memory cushions, with a low-clamp adjustable strap and no rigid parts near the ear. Everything a toddler touches is soft — that's the whole design.
Will they actually fit her?
One size. The strap adjusts the whole way from one to four years, so there's nothing to measure and nothing to outgrow.
Can she sleep in them?
Yes — the low clamp force and soft cushions are what make that possible.
Will these stop her ears hurting on the plane?
No — and we won't pretend otherwise. Ear pain on descent is a pressure change, not a noise problem. Feed her or give her a drink on the way down.
Can she still hear me?
Yes. They turn the volume down, not off. She hears your voice and the music — just not the full wall of it.
Why only 800?
Because we're new and didn't want to guess high. Overordering a first run ties up the cash that keeps a small brand alive.
We took our daughter to a wedding at fourteen months. We lasted forty minutes, and I spent the rest of the night in the car park with her asleep on my shoulder, listening to the party through a wall. I didn't want ear protection. I wanted to be inside. That's the whole reason these exist.
