To learn easily and communicate effectively, your child needs to hear well. Hearing damage is the number one undiagnosed health issue in infants, and it can lead to language and learning disabilities. Providing children with a high-quality, audio-enriched environment can augment auditory development and help them have a lifetime of healthy hearing. Ear infections and middle-ear fluid can damage a child's hearing and listening ability. Otitis Media is the most common ear infection in children. Make sure your child is not a victim of Otitis Media or other problems by having your child's hearing regularly checked by a medical professional. Exposure to loud sounds ("toxic noise") is another threat to hearing health. It can be especially harmful during the early, developing years; even everyday sounds can damage the delicate auditory apparatus in very young children. We encourage you to monitor your children's audio environment to promote their hearing health.
