The Chewbuddy Disc is a small, discreet sensory chew that gives children a safe, dedicated thing to chew at home, at school or out and about. It is made in the UK from non-toxic, medical grade material and is free from BPA, PVC, latex, cadmium, lead and phthalates. Each twin pack contains two discs of the same colour and a detachable safety lanyard.
Choose the right toughness: Standard or Tuff
The Chewbuddy Disc comes in two toughnesses, so you can match it to how your child chews.
- Standard: for mild to moderate chewers.
- Tuff: a firmer version of the Standard disc, for moderate to strong chewers.
Both versions are the same size and shape: 5cm long, 5cm wide, 1cm thick and 16g in weight.
How the Chewbuddy Disc helps
The disc has ridges and dimples on its surface that give extra sensory feedback while chewing. Its small, flat shape makes it discreet, which may suit older children who would rather not draw attention to a chew. Worn on the detachable lanyard, it stays close to hand and off the floor.
For parents and home use
- Gives your child a chew that is made for chewing, so it is easy to keep clean and check.
- Two discs per pack, so one can be in use while the other is being washed.
- Washes in water and mild soap, and can be sterilised or put in the dishwasher.
- Small and low-key enough to take to school, on days out or on journeys.
Support for autism, ADHD and sensory processing differences
Many autistic children look for oral sensory input, and chewing is a common way they meet that need. A chew made for the job is a safe alternative to sleeves, collars or pencils.
Children with ADHD often chew while concentrating or waiting. A discreet disc on a lanyard is there whenever they need it, without being a distraction to others.
For children with sensory processing differences who seek oral input, the ridged and dimpled texture gives extra feedback. The Tuff option is available for stronger biters.
Safe use
Sensory chews are not toys. Adult supervision is required, and the disc is not suitable for children under 3 years. Chews are durable but not indestructible, so check the disc for wear before and during use and replace it if you see any damage. The lanyard is not designed to be chewed.
If you are not sure which toughness to choose, start with Standard for gentler chewers and Tuff for children who bite harder. Our team is always happy to help you choose.
