In 1873, at the age of 15, Chester created the first earmuffs to protect his ears from the cold while ice skating. \n\n\n\nChester was tired of using an itchy wool scarf to keep his ears warm in winter. He knew there had to be a better solution. He started working on the idea when he was just 15 and was awarded the patent On March 13, 1877, when he was 18! \n\n\n\nFarmington became known as the Earmuff Capital of the World, especially after Greenwood’s company began supplying earmuffs to U.S. soldiers during World War I.\n\n\n\nHis innovative design has since become a winter staple, providing warmth and comfort during frosty days.\n\n\n\nLearn more about Chester’s invention and other Kid Inventors in the Happy Hive Homeschooling KID INVENTORS DAY ( https://happyhivehomeschooling.com/product/kid-inventors-day-activities/ ) resource. \n\n\n\nVisit the Happy Hive Homeschooling shop for a set of 6 different kid inventors your children can explore. \n\n\n\nWays Kids Can Celebrate National Earmuff Day:\n\n\n\n\nEarmuff Fashion Show: Turn the celebration into a fashion extravaganza by organizing an earmuff fashion show.
