My Apple Watch Noise app often triggers over 90 dB at the squares in the seating areas.

More than 30 minutes day or over 4 hrs a week at that level can cause hearing loss.

Impact may be more diminished in those with cumulitive hearing loss but I'd be especially careful limiting the time with children in the squares.
