BuddyPhones: Safe and Fun Headphones for Kids

Sharing and Safety Combined in a Kid-Friendly Design

When it comes to headphones for children, safety is of utmost importance. BuddyPhones are designed to limit the volume to 85db, the recommended level by the World Health Organization. This ensures that children can listen to their favorite music, audiobooks, or educational content without the risk of damaging their sensitive hearing. With the option of multiple kids sharing one device, parents can also enjoy a peaceful and harmonious environment.

BuddyPhones come in two versions: the Standard and the Foldable Travel. Both versions are built to withstand the wear and tear of active kids. Made from durable ABS housing and a specially calibrated polypropylene headband that bends in every direction, these headphones are designed to be robust and long-lasting. The adjustable headband and soft anti-allergenic ear pads provide maximum comfort, even during extended use.

One of the standout features of BuddyPhones is the detachable flat cable. This design choice minimizes the risk of entanglement and choking hazards, ensuring the safety of young children. Additionally, the BuddyCable audio splitter allows up to four kids to share one device, eliminating any squabbles over who gets to listen. The headphones also come with colorful DIY stickers, allowing kids to personalize and express their creativity.

With a built-in microphone and an answering button, BuddyPhones offer a convenient hands-free calling experience for kids. Whether they are using the headphones for entertainment or communication, BuddyPhones provide a versatile solution that meets the needs of modern children.

Designed to be used by kids of all ages, anytime, anywhere, BuddyPhones are the perfect companion for children with sensitive hearing, attention deficits, or autism. The thoughtful design and attention to detail make BuddyPhones a safe and reliable choice for parents who want to provide their children with the best audio experience.

Since its inception in January 2015, the BuddyPhones project has undergone extensive research and development. The headphones were tested by 30 kids aged 3 to 13, and the feedback from both children and parents was overwhelmingly positive. The durability, safety features, and colorful design were highly appreciated, making BuddyPhones a hit among families.

BuddyPhones have also received recognition in the design community. In 2016, they were awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in the Baby, Kids, and Children's Products Design category. This prestigious accolade is a testament to the innovative and creative design of BuddyPhones, which combines functionality, safety, and style.

With its commitment to safety, durability, and fun, BuddyPhones have become a trusted choice for parents worldwide. Petur Hannes Olafsson's design has revolutionized the way kids enjoy audio content, providing a safe and enjoyable experience for children of all ages.
