Hearing a child’s first word has been voted the most magical moment in life, ahead of when they were born. A poll of 2,000 adults found the heart-warming family memory also beat getting married. Falling in love for the first time, getting your first pay packet and hearing your baby’s first cry also featured in the top 20. The study, which was conducted by high street hearing specialist Hidden Hearing, also revealed other top life milestones included getting your first job, hearing someone you love say "I love you too" and buying your first home.

While one of many women's most magical moments in life was having a baby, men ranked getting married, buying their first home and passing their driving test above it. Almost one in five men even named their football team winning a major trophy as a top moment, ahead of hearing a "yes" when they proposed to their partner.

Interestingly the study, carried out via OnePoll.com, found eight in ten Brits believe hearing is one of the key senses necessary to enjoy life’s most precious moments.

Hidden Hearing is supporting ‘The Campaign for Better Hearing’ to get everyone, especially those over the age of 55 in the UK, to have a regular hearing test to help stay on top of their health and ensure they enjoy life’s most magic moments.

As part of the campaign, Hidden Hearing is offering up to five free pairs of hearing aids each month, one for every 1,000 free hearing tests they carry out to people who otherwise couldn’t afford them.
