There is also a wax type ear plus that you can buy that mold totally to the ear so it will not be sticking out so less chance , she will pull it once covered in tape... Plus, you can make as small as you need.

I think they supply tape at the first aid tent for putting on baby ear plugs....

We used bandaids to cover the earplugs, worked great :)

The orange silicone types you don't really need tape over them to help keep them in as they'll kind of just stick in there after you get them in right.  You roll them into a ball in your palms and then kind of press/form them into the ear.  It's best to use two hands when pressing it into the ear kind of spreading it/smoothing it out till it more or less fills in the ear 'cavity' without actually going down into the ear canal.  It seems kind of weird at first but you and they'll get used to it if you go that route.

Not saying they never fall out, which is why extras for the extras are always good in case they get dirty, but if they do just pop it back in a spread it out a little better and it usually seems to hold.

We have a set of the headsets for kids like the photo above, but we found they just kept ripping them off since they were so heavy.  Sure looks like the girl is having fun and doesn't mind them tho!

If you don't like something, change it.  Otherwise change the way you feel about it.

So cute!  I think Shea would rip those off.  But i'm so glad to have so many ideas.  I went and got the ear plugs for kids today...all they had in "kid" size at Target were some orange kid swimmer ones.  I'm going to experiment later today.  (Shea is passed out on my chest...aww)  Thank you so much to everyone who has contributed!  I would be much more stressed if I didn't feel prepared.
