Thinking of getting these for my 7 and 9 yo for Christmas. Anybody have any experience with fitting for kids?

Sean, After owning this headset for the time that I have, I'm not too sure that I would invest the money on them for kids. The reason for my opinion is simply that I have found these to not be as rugged or durable as I initially thought. I'm 53 years old and treat these things with care. however, I was taking them off at work the other day and the right side earpiece snapped off. This is due to the VERY thin adjusting blade made of plastic that holds the earpiece to the headset. That is a pretty weak design element. In my opinion, kids won't be as gingerly as an adult with such a delicate of equipment. Plus given the age of the youngsters, I do have some doubt that they will fit.. but a "suggestion" for you, If you get these Glue the adjustment bracket to the headset with very strong glue (3M 2000lb) and these should last for a long time.

Yes I have and they fit fine. At the time I had that tub my children were 1 and 3 and they loved their tub! Its such a great tub!

My small 7 year old wore them here http://photographybyatanner.blogspot.com/2015/01/28115-waldo.html and they fit great! :)

I got them for my (at that time) 6 yr. old grandson, they were roomy. He's 7 now, still wearing, so if you have a 9 yr. old with large hands, it might be snug, but they're cotton, so they stretch. Worth the try!

Not really. I bought two pairs - one for a 2.5 year old and one for a 4.5 year old. They technically fit the older child, but they look very small and a little silly. They are perfect for the 2.5 year old. If your child is on the smaller side, they might be fine. My older child is very tall and looks like a 6 year old.

They should fit. They really just slip over the head. The hats would be my only concern, just depending on the size of the child's head.

My kids are from 5, 7, 9. They fit all nicely I can even wear them. The volume works for them but we have not used them on an airplane.

My daughter is now 7 and has had these for more than a year and still loves them. They are adjustable, so wear them with some thick socks in the beginning.

They are nice and snug, yes. My 7 year old uses them and they stay on without slipping as he moves around like the crazed creature he is. :)

I bought mine for my then 9yo and they fit fine. I doubt they would size down enough to securely fit an infant. I believe there is an infant version, and I can't help but wonder if the wrong product was reviewed.

They are a bit too big for my 3, 4 and 5 yr. olds, but I would GUESS they would fit a 9 yr. old

I think the regular should be okay. When I got this; my son was 9 but he's slim and they were a little loose but he said they were comfy. Now that he's 10 this year and a little taller and heavier, he says they are just right.

the ones I got and had to return ran very small for their size. I would say go up one or even two sizes... but they also run more toward lean kid... if got any kinda size that's not thin, you might have a problem... going up in size to fit body will prob make legs long....

They'll fit big. They are meant for an adult. I couldn't find gear to fit my daughter - but she's 7 and I think she'll love them!

I think they would be too big for a young child. All I did was try to strap the knee pads on when they were delivered and then I immediately returned them when they did not fit. You should probably go to a sporting goods store and try some different pairs on. That is what I am going to do now.

I am an adult and they fit me. I do have a small head though. They are adjustable so depending on how old your child is/head size, you should be able to get away with them.

I bought them when my son was 16 months and they fit wonderfully. They're adjustable so they fit my husband and I as well. I'd say it's a safe bet that they fit from 9 months on.
