Brick Stick Necklace
ARK's Brick Stick® Textured Chew Necklace provides a safe, wearable, discreet, and cool solution for those who need to chew. Use this "chewelry" as an oral fidget (or even hand fidget) to help calm, soothe, and self-regulate during times of stress, to better focus during homework and other activities, for sensory oral motor input, and/or as a safe alternative to chewing/biting on fingers, knuckles, shirts, pencils, etc. With large bumps on one side and small bumps on the other, this bumpy block chew necklace provides a full range of oral sensory input. 2.5" long x .6" wide x .5" thick pendant on a 30" adjustable breakaway cord. Toughness Guide: Standard - This is the softest level, recommended for mild chewers (those who do not chew through anything). XT / Medium Firm - This is the middle level. It's firmer, but still fairly chewy, recommended for moderate chewers. XXT / Very Firm - This is the toughest level. It still has some "chewability" to it, but it's fairly rigid / pretty firm. No chew tool is indestructible, but this is usually the longest lasting level for avid chewers.

Butter Pencil Grip 2 Pack
The Butter Grip is specially designed to promote proper finger positioning during writing tasks. The round serves as a tactile cue for the fingers to grasp around. The Butter Grip opens up the web space, provides support to the finger muscles, and can help decrease hyper-extension. It can be used with standard pencils, most crayons, and most pens. At a diameter of 1 inch, this grip is recommended for children and young adults. For those who need extra input to the hand, putting the second grip on the opposite end of the pencil will add more weight for added hand awareness and may help the pencil "fall into" the web space where it should rest.

ARK Butter Pencil Grip Web Space Opener (2 Pack)
The Butter Grip is specially designed to promote proper finger positioning during writing tasks. A proper grip not only encourages fine motor development, but it also improves handwriting legibility. The round shape of this occupational therapy pencil grip serves as a tactile cue for the fingers to grasp around. The fingers "hug" the grip, and the fingertips rest just below the grip on the pencil. In this position, the Butter Grip opens up the web space, provides support to the finger muscles, and can help decrease hyperextension. At a diameter of 1 inch, this round pencil grip is recommended for children and young adults. Sold in packs of two. Optional trick: For those who need extra input to the hand, try putting the second Butter Grip on the opposite end of a regular pencil (near the eraser). This will add a bit more weight to the pencil for added hand awareness. And it may help the pencil "fall into" the web space where it should rest.
