Add Beads to a Hearing Aid Tube
There are a lot of children in the world who have to wear hearing aids. Most of them go through a period of being uncomfortable with the fact that they have to wear a hearing aid. This is normal to experience since it sets them apart from other kids.
One way that you can help your child get through this tough period is to find ways to decorate the hearing aid. Instead of hiding the hearing aid, your child will be proud to show it off. Plus decorating the hearing aid can be a great fun project for you and your child to do together.
I found one great set of instructions for doing this online. These instructions suggest that you and your child add colorful beads to the tube of the hearing aid. You simply purchase beads that would be made to make jewelry. Choose a size that will fit tightly (but not too tightly) around the hearing aid tube. You can create neat designs and change them out for different outfits or different holidays.
It’s tough having a child who has to wear a hearing aid. Kids all want to fit in and this is something that will make your child stand out. By helping your child stand out in a positive way, you’ll make the whole thing go more smoothly and create positive memories for your kid. In fact, I think every hearing clinic should have a craft room for doing things like this!
