ARK’s Chew Tags are a safe and super discreet solution for both kids and adults who need to chew. A good fit for those who prefer chewing with their pre-molars and/or front teeth. Use these Chew Tags as a safe alternative to chewing on pencils, shirts, fingers, etc, and to help calm, focus, and self-regulate.  Like all other ARK chewelry, they're made in South Carolina, USA, and come in 3 color-coded toughness levels: Magenta, Red, Dark Blue, or Light Grey = Soft (the chewiest level), recommended for mild chewing Lime Green, Teal, Hot Pink, or Black = XT (firmer, but still chewy), for mild to moderate chewing Blue, Lavender, Forest Green, Orange, or Dark Grey = XXT (very firm), for those who like to chew on firm / fairly rigid items  *Please note: because of its thinner shape, this is not the longest-lasting chew necklace for heavy chewers.  Not recommended for aggressive chewing.  For most individuals, ARK's Dino-Bite is the longest-lasting necklace. With each ARK's Chew Tag necklace, you get: 2 pendants together on a breakaway necklace cord Color hues may vary slightly Designed, manufactured, and assembled in the USA by ARK Therapeutic Each pendant is medical grade, FDA compliant, and contains NO lead, phthalates, PVC, BPA, or latex Each pendant measures approximately 1 inch wide, 2 inches tall, and .3 inch thick. The cord measures approximately 36 inches in length. If desired, you can shorten the cord by scooting the thread out of the clasp, retying the knot at a shorter length, and then trimming the 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 - direct supervision required.  Recommended for children age 5 years and up.  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 are 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.  For the longest-lasting chew tool overall, see ARK's Y-Chew XXT.

Use this thin chew necklace as a safe alternative to chewing on pencils, shirts, fingers, etc. and to help calm, focus, and self-regulate.
