With X mas coming up I wanted to get my sons ( 8 and 6) some nice cans since they love music just as much as I do.  I have the Pan RP- HTF 600 but they look just too big for them.  I just got them their first iPods and wanted to get some cans minus$$$.  Anything 30 on down that are not massive their little heads.  Thanks.

Thanks Great Dane.  I will take a look at them.  I thought this thread would be more pop but I guess people don't have kids or their kids don't love music as much as we do. 
It is good to see my sons love for music.  When I grew up all I did was record And mix music.  
If any body has other suggestions please let me know.  THX

YW.  The Porta Pro is legendary for good reason. Lifetime warranty is always a good thing. 900+ 4 & 5 star ratings at Amazon is impressive.
 
Do a search for this topic here but I've done that before and I remember there wasn't much.

I have a pair of the HD 202 that my 6 year old daughter uses.  She doesn't have any trouble with the fit, and for $20 headphones they sound pretty good.

Years back I bought my sons Sennheiser HD201 togeter with their first iPods (1st gen Shuffle at the time) and that worked great and they were so cheap in US that I ordered 4 pairs to have backups if one pair got broken

Joker's portable shootout thread is worth reading.

You might also want to set the volume limiter on those iPods, so that your sons avoid the risk of damaging their hearing.
