These Chewy Tubes family easy-grasp, closed loop handles that are easy for little fingers to grasp and hold; with a solid stem that’s designed especially for biting and chewing skill practice. Super Chews come in your choice of Smooth (green) or Knobby (red). These 4″ chewies are latex-free, lead-free, non-toxic, and non-flavored.
Chewy Tubes Super Chews are an innovative oral-motor device designed to provide a resilient, non-food, chewable surface for practicing biting and chewing skills. They are also great for providing sensory input to the mouth in preparation for chewing and are an excellent tool in helping improve jaw stability. Chewy tubes are a great tool for kids with Sensory Processing Disorder that crave the tactile oral input as well as those with Autism Spectrum Disorders. It is an effective tool for individuals with Autism that bite their clothes or fingers. Made of FDA approved material, they are latex free, lead free and do not contain any PVC.
Chewy Tubes are available in two attractive colors:
- Red Tube (textured) offers a slightly wider stem size (7/16″diameter). The little bumps on the surface provide tactile stimulation for the mouth.
- Green Tube (smooth) offers a slightly wider stem size (7/16″diameter).
All Chewy Tubes Super Chews are approx. 4″ long. If a child cannot close the jaw in response to tactile stimulation, the larger size tube should be introduced first, with a transition to the narrower tube after more consistent and graded jaw closure is demonstrated. If a child demonstrates difficulty opening the jaw, start with the narrower tube and work your way up to the wider one. Chewy Tubes may be washed with soap and water.
