She picked the hippo herself and was obsessed with it straight away 😂 We played her favorite songs in the car and she stayed happy the whole ride. Now she calls it her “hippo music hat”

Bedtime used to take an hour. Now he lies down with his stories on and I'm out of the room before the second one finishes

He usually gets restless after ten minutes in the car, but the bear Cubby kept him happy for most of the ride. He still asked for snacks, of course, but there was a lot less fussing than usual.

Bought this for our first airport trip with her, and she was so excited to wear the yellow one. It didn’t keep her still the entire time, but it definitely made waiting around much easier and she kept asking for her “dog headphones

Super easy to connect. I put on a lullaby playlist, handed her the yellow Cubby, and she settled down way faster than usual. The side buttons are a nice touch too.

Cubby™ Audio Buddy
Cubby™ Audio Buddy
We Started With One Simple Problem
Every parent knows the moment. Your child is finally sleepy — in the car, on the plane, at the end of a long day — and then their head touches the seat, the hard earcup jams into their ear, and they're wide awake again. Off come the headphones. Gone goes the nap.
Nobody had solved it, because everyone kept building the same thing: hard plastic, over the ears, impossible to lie down in.
So we built the opposite. Cubby is a soft fleece headband with speakers just 9.9mm thin tucked into a fleece pocket — flat enough that your child can rest their head anywhere and keep listening until they drift off. No hard parts. No cords. No battle.
We make one thing, and we make it for one moment: the moment your child needs to be calm, comfortable, and asleep — wherever you happen to be.
Cubby. Soft enough to sleep in.
Built For The Moment Other Headphones Fail
Try It On Your Next Trip
If your little one won't wear it — the design, the fit, any reason at all — send it back within 365 days for a full refund. The only risk is another nap that doesn't happen

Excellent Service even though product was not for me
This is a very cute, well made product. Unfortunately, my toddler absolutely refused to wear it. When I tried to initiate a return by emailing support, they immediately issued a refund, no questions asked. I am so pleasantly surprised with the efficiency of their service and the fact that they stand by their word. I rate this company very highly.

Orange Fox Headband
From ordering to delivery a very smooth process and I was able to track my parcel with ease. My little granddaughter loves Orange Fox so she has been wearing her headband round the house without pulling it off, getting her ready for a transatlantic flight in a couple of weeks.Very pleased with my purchase.

Prompt response and help from Johnson
Just would like to special mention Johnson from the supports team he handled my concern promptly, professionally and showed empathy along the process. He arranged for a replacement of my lost parcel. This shows that the company is not only after profit but makes sure that their customers are happy and get what they paid for. Thank you Cubby and Johnson!

A Godsend on a flight
Used the Cubby on the flight home to get our 18 month old to sit still for a while. He was so comfortable he eventually fell asleep which made the journey much easier for everyone on the aeroplane.

These headphones are very comfortable and the audio is great. Our kids used them on a flight. They barely take any space in uour bag. Great purchase!
Frequently Asked Questions
My kid pulls off everything I put on their head. Is this really going to be any different?
My kid pulls off everything I put on their head. Is this really going to be any different?
We hear this from parents all the time — it's the exact reason Cubby exists. Most headphones get yanked off because they're hard, tight, and pinch little ears. Cubby is different: it's a soft, cozy fabric headband with a cute animal face and flat speakers tucked inside, so there's nothing hard or heavy pressing on your child's head. Little ones tend to forget they're even wearing it — and because it looks like a fun character instead of "headphones," they usually want it on. If your child turns out to be the rare exception, you can send it back for a full refund, so there's truly no risk in finding out.
What's actually inside it, and is it safe for my little one to use?
What's actually inside it, and is it safe for my little one to use?
Cubby is simply a soft fleece headband with two thin, flat speakers tucked into a fleece pocket — that's it. No hard earcups, no small loose parts, and no cords to tangle or worry about, because it's completely wireless. Using it couldn't be easier: switch it on, pair it to your phone or tablet over Bluetooth, and press play. You set the volume from your own device, so you're always in control of how loud — or how gentle — it is. And when it needs freshening up, just pop out the speakers and toss the band in the wash on cold.
Will it actually be comfy enough for my child to fall asleep in — even in the car or on a plane?
Will it actually be comfy enough for my child to fall asleep in — even in the car or on a plane?
Yes — and honestly, this is the whole reason parents fall in love with it. The speakers are flat and ultra-thin, so when your child rests their head against a car seat, a plane headrest, or their own pillow, there are no bulky earcups digging into their ear. They can lie back — on their back or their side — and drift off to a story, a lullaby, or soft music, wherever the day takes you. For a lot of families, it's the difference between a meltdown and a peaceful nap.
