As parents, all we want to do is keep our babies safe, but one element of personal safety we sometimes aren’t quite as hot on as we should be, is ensuring our babies are not around unsafe levels of sound.
Babies have incredibly sensitive ears - their ear canals are physically smaller than an adults, and therefore the pressure that is created by sound is even greater - this means that if a sound is loud to us as adults, it’s even louder for babies and young children.
