Well Thought Out Design
By J. Baker
After researching headsets for my 5.5 yr old, I bought this set and the Griffin myphones. I thought we could compare them, and if we liked both, one set could be for my 17 month old, too. After two weeks, my 5 yr old and I both prefer this set. It has a wider adjustment range, (fits the toddler AND fits me, an avg.-headed woman, but doesn't fit larger-headed husband) The sound quality is excellent, the plastic seems durable and flexible, and should withstand moderately rough use.

The options for two ways of controlling volume is particularly nice, b/c my son mostly listens to audio books, but also listens to music sometimes. The flexibility is great, b/c other headsets "volume limiters" just lower the overall volume, thus causing the spoken word or quieter songs, soft music (esp. lullaby style music) to not get loud enough to hear.

Before purchasing this headset, I called Kidz Gear on the phone to ask specifically about the decibel restriction issue above. I was promptly answered by a friendly, polite man with plenty of good information and the willingness to explain it all. Customer service seemed excellent, should I need help in the future.

I am a research-nut and not very easy to please. Despite these qualities, I would buy this again and would recommend it to others.

Finally, a set for under 5
By K. A.
This set is wonderful--best I've seen for little heads. It really does fit 2 year-olds (unlike most other "kid" headphones), and my 5 year-old loves them, as well (we are going to order a second pair). They are sturdy and comfortable, with padding around the ears. They could also fit older children until their ears started being closer to adult size (the padding is the only thing stopping these for working for an adult since the padding doesn't sit around the ear for adults, but ON parts of the ear--the headphones themselves are plenty big enough when you adjust them). Definitely worth $15-20 to not have headphones for trips that fall off or have to be fiddled with every 2 minutes.

Headphones for 15 Month Old
By J. Wily
I purchased these headphones for my 15 month old for plane trips since we travel quite a bit. They work perfectly for him to watch videos on my Ipod Nano, and he actually leaves them on! They're soft for his little ears, and they adjust to fit him perfectly. I also appreciate the volume control that prevents the sound from getting too loud (although I just adjust the sound on the ipod, and lock it so my toddler can't adjust the volume).

I would highly recommend these headphones to anyone looking for something to fit a young child. As far as durability goes, they have held together well, however, I've only had them for a couple of months, so I don't know the long-term durability.

Samsung rocks
By nanaladybug
I preordered this for my five year old grandson. It came yesterday. He did not put it down until bedtime. He loved it. It is true it is just like my samsung galaxy two except for a few additions. Also he was able to play it soon out of the box. His dad down loaded many of the educational tools that he is uses in school. This was the main reason for picking this tab. He was not approved for a free IPad that was given to children with autism. So he had been working on my tablet. Thank you Samsung for your products. Samsung rocks

Teacher and Techie say good non-Apple product for kids
By Colleen Green
My five year old son has outgrown his LeapPad and has commandeered our iPads on numerous occasions to play Angry Birds, Word World or Where's My Perry. Unfortunately one day I found him watching You Tube videos of the graphic and violent video game Saint's Row. At that point we knew we would not simply be handing down our iPad 1 to him while we upgraded to newer iPads for ourselves. Apple simply has no provision for parental controls on their products which is sad. We've spent a great deal of money on apps through the Apple App Store. We have always loved that the apps from the App Store are certified even if you occasionally run into a few that don't work. Plus, Apple products last forever and tend to have good resale and trade in value.

Hence, we were skeptical when we decided to look at other tablet manufacturers for our son. We researched every kids tablet on the market. We felt he would either outgrow, break or not be able to access the apps he loves on most of the devices on the market. So, we turned to the Tab 3 Kids tablet as our solution.

Is it breakable? Yes. About as breakable physically as an iPad which tend to be pretty durable. However, as we have trained our son over several years to be gentle with our tablets, we weren't as worried about it. My iPad always had a rubber bumper on it and the bumper for the tab is exactly same. I expect it will hold up and protect the device the just as well.

Setting up the device was a headache. There was a lot of registering this and that, etc., unlike Apple which is ready to go out of the box. I am not a fan of the Android operating system. Neither is my husband who has worked in computer system networking for the last 18 years. However, given there's little choice in the kids tablet market with OSes, it could have been a worse experience. The so called "gifts with purchase" were worthless except for the 50g of drop box space. Unfortunately we already paid for Drop Box and weren't eligible for that.

Once I had figured out how to use the tablet it was pretty easy to get my son's favorite apps from the Google Play store. (The majority of the other tablets we looked at had no access to Google Play. A big turn off.) Google had most of the apps he uses. Sadly no Word World, but oh well. The costs for the apps were the same as the Apple ones.

The kids' portion of the tablet is pretty easy to use. You are only allowed 20 apps for the kids to access at a time. They can easily be switched out under parental controls though. The time limiters for the tablet are a little simple. Would have like a bit more choice and flexibility. You can either limit use of the device to anywhere up to just over an hour OR you can set the time the tablet is child accessible, ie, 10am to 2pm. You cannot set multiple access times.

The kids App Store is silly. I doubt my child will be interested in much of what is in there but he's surprised me on more than one occasion. There is no access directly to You Tube which is a big plus for me. I get tired of him watching videos of other people playing Angry Birds or Minecraft.

I was very easily able to set up his access to the apps I purchased through Google Play using the parental controls once I had downloaded them on the normal side.

Battery life seems comparable with our iPads. The screen size is good for him. Big enough to see unlike an iPhone or iPod Touch. The adapter for charging is a simple micro-USB so no special expensive cords to buy.

All in all it's a good little tablet for kids. I expect it will last a couple of years before needing replacing with the next new thing. A word of warning to parents though: don't buy this tablet and expect to "share" it with your child. Just because it has parental controls and has the normal Android OS on it as well doesn't mean your child isn't going to go absolutely nuts if he sees you using it. Take it from a parents who have owned iPads of various types since the day they hit the stores. Get your child THEIR OWN tablet even if they are not allowed to use it all the time. You'll appreciate not having to deal with the headaches.

Great kids tablet that is still good for anyone else in the family too
By S. Placencio
This thing is great! Is the same as the regular Galaxy tab 3 but comes with kids mode and a lot of pre installed kids apps. Also is yellow with an orange rubber case included. My six year old son is always using my wifes ipod and my Galaxy s3 so he is a pro at using these already. I love the color and the fact that it has a case included. The kids mode is great and there are a lot of games and apps for free on the kids store. You can set up parental controls to limit how long your child uses the device and also a password to make sure your child can not access anything you don't want them to. I love the fact that you can change from kids mode to standard mode with the touch of a button ( after you put in your password) so it makes this a standard galaxy tab 3. My son will love this when he gets it on Christmas day. Was looking for a tablet for my son and this one is perfect!

Loves them
By Irishlawlass
My daughter really likes these. They are nice looking and good quality. Just remember that YOUR KID IS GONNA TALK LIKE THIS WHENEVER THEY HAVE THEM ON BECAUSE THEY DON'T REALIZE YOU CAN HEAR THEM PERFECTLY WELL WITHOUT THEM SHOUTING OVER THE MUSIC. If you can live with that, these are great. :)

5 stars for 5 year old, 3 stars for the 2 year old
By N. Poore
These headphones are great, they fit each of my children well and I love the fact that they don't turn up as loud as regular headphones. However be aware there is a volume control wheel on the headphones themselves. This is fine for my 5 year old because if I tell her not to adjust it she usually won't. However, my 2 year old and I fought about this for the first few days of use. Finally I had to test it to get it to a good volume and then put electrical tape over the wheel so he can't change it. When he is old enough we can still take it off and he won't hurt is ear drums because even though these don't go up as loud as regular headphones, they do go up loud enough for me to hear what they are listening to and that in my opinion is too loud for little ears. Overall extremely happy with this purchase they are cute, effective, cheap and they even fit me!

Perfect
By K.Manary
I love the product and the sound control. Just know that you set the main item to the max you want and on the cord the kids cannot go past that. LOVE IT!
