Chewlery

LLawrence

My 3 year old loves to lick and chew things he's not supposed to. We've tried multiple different types of chewlery with no success. We've tried the silicone Lego brick one which he bit through. We've tried a silicone club which he ended up putting the whole club in his mouth sideways and chewed the barrel clasps. We then tried a fabric chewlery but he chewed the popper clasps and then we tried a fabric one with velcro clasp but he would just put the velcro too far in his mouth. I haven't been able to find anything else online.

Does anyone else have any suggestions?

    The problem we have is that he keeps chewing the clasps that join the chewlery together. He also wouldn't have one that he holds in his hand as he would just throw it on the floor. It's certain been difficult to find one. I did mention it to Paediatrics about whether he's got a bit of SPD or ARFID because of the constant chewing and licking non edible things.
