1 month since Dragons’ Den… and it’s been a bit of a rollercoaster.
We’ve been blown away by the support. Every order genuinely means a lot to us, so thank you for choosing Kibu 💛
We’re still building, still learning, and still working hard behind the scenes.

The Dragons’ Den effect: One week on.
Everyone wants to know what it’s really like to stand in front of the Dragons.
For us, it looked something like this...
Since pitching Kibu, the only children’s headphones you can Build, Repair, and Recycle, we’ve been completely blown away by the response.
Orders have been flooding in and we’re working flat out to get every single one built and out the door!
Families, schools, and sustainability lovers from all over have been sliding into our DMs. 🐉
We’ve been featured across the press, and our community has grown faster than we ever imagined.
But the thing that’s made us smile the most? Seeing how many parents and kids are excited to build something together and actually look after it.
That’s exactly why we made Kibu.

We’re still pinching ourselves. 🐉 The response since our Dragons’ Den episode has been absolutely overwhelming. Thank you for every kind message, every order, and every family who’s chosen to build something better with us. This is just the beginning. ♻️🎧
Tonight’s the night! 👀 We’re heading into the Den. Tune in to BBC One at 8pm to see if the Dragons think Kibu is as cool as you do. Will they build with us? 🐉🎧

We’ve been keeping this secret for almost a year... 🐉
WE’RE GOING ON DRAGON’S DEN!!!
Building, repairing, and caring for the planet. We took Kibu straight to the Dragons to show them what the future of children’s products looks like. We genuinely cannot wait to see the reaction.
Tune in to BBC One, on Thursday 26th February at 8pm, to watch Kibu take on the Den. Will the Dragons see what we see? 👀
See you there! 🎧
We’re Kibu, and we make the only children’s headphones you can build, repair, and recycle.
Our headphones come as a simple STEM kit that turns everyday listening into a hands-on learning adventure. With a little help from grown-ups, kids can build their own pair, learn how they work, and take pride in something they made themselves.
👂 Volume-safe for little ears
🛠️ Super easy to build – no fiddly wires, screws or glue
♻️ 3D printed from recycled bioplastic that comes from plants like corn
🔧 Made to be repaired, not thrown away
Kibu headphones are designed with love to spark curiosity, encourage creativity, and make learning fun for kids and grown-ups alike.
🎉 We won! 🎉
Kibu has been named Sustainable Design of the Year by Dezeen Awards 2025! 🏆🌍
These amazing headphones started with a simple idea: what if kids could build their own tech and fix it too? The judges loved how Kibu makes sustainability part of the fun, turning building and repairing into a hands-on learning adventure. 💡🔧
With easy-to-snap-together parts, no fiddly wires, and a design made to last, Kibu is more than just a pair of headphones. It’s a project, a lesson, and a celebration of curiosity all in one.
Thank you to everyone who’s supported us on this journey. Here's to more learning, building and caring for our planet together 💚

✨ We’ve been shortlisted for not one but two Dezeen Awards! ✨
Kibu is up for Product Design (Consumer Design) and Sustainable Design — and we couldn’t be prouder.
This means so much to us. It’s recognition of what we’ve been building: safe, repairable headphones for kids that are made from recycled materials and designed to be fixed, not thrown away.
It shows that great design isn’t just about how something looks, but how it works, how it’s made, and what it teaches.
Thanks to the Dezeen jury and everyone supporting what Kibu stands for. We’re honoured to be shortlisted — and quietly hoping to bring home a win too. 💙
