Review on Sensory Chew Necklaces for Kids - Silicone Chewable Pendant for Autistic, ADHD, SPD - Oral Motor Chewy Necklace for Chewing, Biting by Megan Smith

Bought this for myself (F, 27 years old, with ADHD) mainly to avoid snacking when I'm not hungry and I have mouth boredom, but also just a general boredom stimulant to ease my ADHD symptoms. I bought different types of chew chains to see which one I liked best and this one ended up in the middle. I don't need to redeem it, but if it broke for some reason I'd probably buy another one. Some points: - It is very beautiful. Such cute boys. But it's taller than I thought it would be, about the width of my adult arm. Wearing it to school or elsewhere will be very noticeable, but so will a wet shirt collar, and one of these is probably more conducive. I don't know how schools handle tough decorations these days. If schools ever get back to normal. The breakaway necklace is one size fits all, but you can pull it down, tie off the thread and trim it shorter if you really need to. It's just a plastic component, not particularly fancy, but well-durable. Silicone so very easy to clean, I just boil some water in a kettle and let it soak in a cup for 10-20 minutes. They look like they will survive the dishwasher but I don't know if the heat cycle will crack or not. - thick. Compared to other medium sized toys. There are some lego and crystal shaped chew chains that are about twice as thick and some of the feathers are much thinner, maybe 1/2-1/3 the thickness. This seems ideal for babies and children because their fingers can do everything else at the same time. For me it's just thick enough that it accentuates my TMJ if I'm not careful, so minus one star for thickness. This means I can't passively chew it like I was looking for, but the different textures are very helpful when I just need to get something done in my mouth and don't need to eat the chips. - Durability. I had no problems. It's been a few weeks, but the paint is still perfect and doesn't crack. However, I do know that I have the ability to adjust chewing based on possible damage to the toy, and kids aren't usually concerned about that. I think he'll be able to hold his own against an infant or maybe an early toddler, totally fine, but an older kid with stronger teeth might have a different experience. Your mileage may vary.
