Review on John Deere Massaging Corn Teether by The First Years: Innovative Soothing Aid for Babies, 1 Count by Malik Berry

I'll warn you straight away that I'm not using this item for toddler teething but as a tranquilizer for our 5 year old son who has some special has needs. He has some pretty severe sensory issues that come with chewing on things a lot to try to calm himself down. A few months ago he had dental work that seemed to make some of the problems worse, and in addition to that he started trying to bite people maybe once or twice a week to try to calm himself down. Once or twice a week is once or twice too much, so we've increased the number of vibrating items on the "good to chew" list because it helps calm him down and reduce the need to bite , which was effective and reduced the frequency. For me, one of the strategies I use is to give him an acceptable chew that has the same texture as the item he wants to chew. One of the things that is very attractive about it is that it has hard parts (husk) and softer parts (corn) and the handle has raised textures so I can transfer that to it with whatever texture I want. be substitute. Since it goes along with everything, it is one of my favorite elastics that I like to take with me to therapy appointments etc. He doesn't mind if he bites it and it vibrates, although there are a few marks popped in from his teeth. In the three weeks we've had this one, he's been putting up with quite a bit of rodents to be chewed. Yeah, when we're out in public, people can look like that. But let's face it, if you have an older child that this can help sensory, chances are they're like our little family and are being watched no matter what you do. I think this is a great multifunctional product for reducing his chewing or biting on inappropriate objects and I love the fact that it vibrates as it is very good at calming him down when he is upset.
