For many of us, the holiday season has already begun. Along with the wonderful celebrations at family gatherings and catch-ups with good friends, there often comes some shopping stress!
If you’re a hearing implant recipient, or you know someone with a hearing implant, look no further than our guide for the best gifts for a hearing implant user! We’ve got ideas for the sporty ones, for the musical at heart, the creatives, the quiet learners, and the travelers. We’re certain that no matter which of these you choose, it will put a smile on any hearing implant recipient’s face.
对于外向和创造力的人
Stand out from the crowd and get creative! There are lots of different ways that you can customize their audio processor to inject some personality. Here are just a few ideas:
1. Skins
Skins are removable stickers that let you customize exactly how your processor looks, from solid colors to intricate patterns or photos—even special holiday design for the season. They work with all of the current MED-EL CI audio processors, and there are two main companies that make skins: Skinit in the USA, and DesignSkin in Europe.
2. DIY！
抓住一些有趣的孩子友好的贴纸，开始创造性。许多孩子喜欢用粘上的宝石或他们最喜欢的卡通的贴纸给予他们的ci一点“bling”。只需避免像胶水或闪光一样的凌乱的东西，因为它可以在所有错误的地方得到！
桑巴设计封面*
桑巴Design Covers are a great way for SAMBA users to match their processor to their style. We’ve got 13 different design covers that are interchangeable, and you can get them individually to make the perfect mix.

6. Sports Headband
The Sports Headband helps keep audio processors safe and secure. Its two pockets hold audio processors, like the RONDO or SAMBA, securely over the implant. And, it’s made from a special moisture-wicking fabric which keeps the processor safe from sweat and moisture.

7.旅行案例
认识有痒的脚吗？旅行案例是击中道路的听证植入者的完美礼物。它有助于将所有这些不同的配件，电池和音频处理器部件保持在一个地方。

8.紫外线干燥套件
Having an audio processor on your head during or after sport can get your processor a bit wet due to sweat. In order to best look after the audio processor, we recommend using a UV Drying Kit which will dry out the excess moisture from your processor, giving it the fullest life possible.

对于敏锐的学习者

9. Med-El康复资源
康复是建立倾听和口语技能的总体术语，我们已经为每个植入者获得了正确的康复资源。玩具和着色书对幼儿来说可能是伟大的，并且复杂的听力活动和互动游戏将有助于旧的收件人。
我们有免费互动和下载活动在线，您还可以通过书籍和玩具诊所或您当地的Med-El代表.
10.书籍和有吸引力
听着有人读书是建立聆听技能的好方法。有两种主要方法可以解决这个问题：与朋友一起阅读书籍，或阅读乘坐有声读物。
以适合收件人年龄的书籍开始。对于孩子们来说，这通常意味着从图画书开始。对于年龄较大的儿童或成人来说，您可以启动具有更复杂主题的书籍，但不要太复杂，因为您希望他们了解这些单词而且不仅仅被淹没。
Audiobooks are great to listen to while reading along with a physical copy of the book. That way an implant recipient can connect the printed words with their sounds.

对于音乐爱好者
After all, who doesn’t love music?
11.音乐
Just like anyone, many implant users love listening to music, so you could buy them a CD of their favorite songs! Remember, appreciating music is often not a skill that comes immediately and can take a lot of practice. Depending on their level of hearing, here are some tips for types of music to buy:
- At the beginning, music with heavy beats like a bass guitar line or percussion instruments is easier to follow than music with wind or string instruments.
- Low-pitched male singers like Johnny Cash might be easier to understand than female singers.
- 与独奏乐器或独奏歌手的音乐通常不那么复杂，因此比具有多种声音或大管弦乐队的音乐更清晰。
Med-el Spotify播放列表也是一个很好的资源，以便了解学习欣赏音乐的歌曲。了解更多信息在这里用耳蜗植入听音乐。
