We Make Our Baby’s Hearing Aids As Colorful as Possible—Here’s Why

After decades of beige, kids' hearing devices now come in a variety of colors! It's a big responsibility to choose a baby's hearing device colors.

It's a big responsibility to choose a baby's hearing device colors.

Our audiologist showed us all of the options, and we thought long and hard about what our daughter would choose herself. We thought about how we want to feel putting them on her each day, and what we want her to see when she looks in the mirror.

We chose pink and blue hearing aids, and get festive ear molds, with glitter and swirls. Our favorite molds are December's peppermint swirls!

Here's why we've chosen to embrace the world of bold colors.

Her hearing devices are a fashion piece she wears every day. So, we want the colors to match her energy and personality, the same way we choose her wardrobe.

They're also visible to others. The bright colors signal that we're comfortable with the subject, and keep the conversation fun and positive.

Most of all, we want our daughter to be excited to wear them. And, we're thrilled for the day she can choose them herself. And if she wants beige, we will fully support that too.

For now, we want to communicate to her - and the world - that we're so proud of how she uses them!
