How to Create an Optimal At-Home Learning Environment!

December 16, 2020

Thank you to 3M for sponsoring today’s post and saving my mama sanity with their product! ;)

Virtual learning has given us plenty of challenges. But, if you are reading this, you probably already know that! You’re living it! I’m here to give you some GOOD NEWS and a big tip to make it better!! I have 6 kids… 4 in virtual learning. We’ve got lots of living going on in our house and lots of distractions! I wanted to set my kids up for success so I got each of them 3M Kids Hearing Protection! GAME CHANGER! They help reduce background noise and distractions! The kids think they are fun and they help them focus in on the tasks they are working on. We might not be able to totally makeover our kids’ learning environment, but we can help make it quieter!




All these changes to their school year have really taken a toll on my kids. When we got the call that it’s now virtual for the rest of the year…. it made everyone sad. EVERYONE. (raises hand. Haha.) Overall the kids are adjusting pretty well but I’m all about adding some happiness to virtual learning and when these arrived it was a great mail day! They come in the cutest kid-friendly designs and they all said they are comfy! (which is a big deal to kids!) They have padded ear cushions that conform around the ears for long-lasting comfort and a flexible headband gives a secure (but not too tight) fit. These are great for kids 3 and older!




I love that 3M Kids Hearing Protection is adjustable so you can keep using it as your child grows. They help create quiet time in our home. Because they are comfortable and in kid-friendly designs, kids will actually put them on — and keep them on!


Our house is pretty loud, plenty of that is happy noise, but nonetheless it can be distracting to the kids when they are trying to do their school work. With the earmuffs they can study without noisy distractions. My kiddos can focus on their work and not get off track. When my kids get distracted it only leads to them asking for the millionth snack of the day. ALL THE SNACKS! How did they ever survive in a full school day? ;)

As parents, we are all trying to navigate this new normal and I was so excited to share this find with you all. It just makes sense! 3M is a trusted protection brand and their 3M Kids Hearing Protection has helped me manage distractions for my kids and create a quieter environment for my family.
