ARK’s Smiley Face Chew Necklace is sure
to put a smile on your face! The double-sided disc pendant features a
big grin smiley on one side (indented) and a cool sunglasses smiley on
the other side (raised) for different visual and tactile interest. At
just under 2" in diameter, it's a great option for those who prefer
chewing with their pre-molars and/or front teeth (for more slender
options that reach the back molars, see other ARK chewelry). Use
this oral sensory solution as a safe alternative to chewing on pencils,
shirts, fingers, etc. and to help calm, focus, and self-regulate.
ARK's Smiley Face comes in 3 color-coded toughness levels:
- Red= Standard, this is the softest Smiley option (the chewiest level, but still firm) recommended for mild chewing
- Lime Green = XT (firmer), for moderate chewing
- Blue = XXT (the most firm), for those who like to chew on fairly firm items. It's also the longest lasting level for avid chewing.
Details:
- Each pendant is sold individually with its own breakaway necklace cord

- Each pendant measures approximately 1.9" in diameter and .3" thick.

excess thread.
- Highly recommended for individuals who have Autism, sensory needs,
anxiety, ADHD, etc, or for anyone of any age who needs to chew.
Caution: This product is not a toy. The clasp and cord are
not intended for chewing. Contains small parts that may pose a choking
hazard. Not recommended for children under 5 years. Although these chew tools are sturdy and durable, no chew tool is indestructible. Wear/tear
may be expected given the nature of the intended use. How long they
last is typically equal to the amount and intensity of the chewing, as
well as other variables (such as jaw strength, stress/anxiety levels, if
other sensory strategies are in place, etc.). While for some people a
chew tool will last forever, for others with heavy/aggressive oral
needs, they may go through it very quickly. Please supervise at all
times and replace if necessary if the item shows signs of wear and tear.
