Hearing Impaired Children – A Specially Designed Website

Oticon, the pioneer in hearing aid manufacture, has a long tradition of offering special services to children with impaired hearing. Expansion of the OtiKids web site to include a new section especially for 4 to 12 year old children marks the beginning of a new stage in Oticon’s excellent service to hearing impaired children. This new web site section offers many attractions for the hearing impaired child. In this website, entertainment and children's hearing-related information go together.

On the website, four kids with hearing related problems from three different countries discuss their life while elaborating on details of their experience with hearing aids. In the same feature, the parents of children with hearing difficulties discuss their own personal experiences, highlighting the triumphs and tribulations of their lives. The prestigious “International Web page Award” of June 2000 was given to the OtiKids web site. A new section gives tips for siblings and grandparents of the child with impaired hearing .

Oticon’s extensive OtiKids program is an extension of the OtiKids website. It provides creative tools for teachers dealing with children with impaired hearing. These tools help the teacher to provide essential audiological information to special kids in an entertaining way.

The OtiKids program is dedicated to the cause of children with impaired hearing. It provides kids with necessary information about hearing and listening tools and how they may best be applied in their own individual cases of hearing losses.
