The soft Spoon Tip is flexible (still firm enough to hold food, but flexible enough to be gentle on the teeth if someone bites down on the spoon. The hard Spoon Tip is rigid, like a regular spoon. The textured version has bumps on the bottom of the spoon bowl to help stimulate the tongue and lower lip, and to help encourage the transition from puréed to more solid foods. Spoon Tip - Great for feeding therapy and mealtimes, these attachments turn the Z-Vibe into a vibrating spoon! The smooth, gentle vibration can help "wake up" the mouth and decrease aversions. Once you bite down on the tip, you get 'rewarded' with a taste of food. The textured version has bumps for extra sensory input.īite Tube Tip - These tips are similar to the Bite-n-Chew Tip, but with a hollow center so that you can put puréed foods (applesauce, yogurt, etc.) inside the tip for functional biting & chewing practice. The "extra long" versions are about an inch longer and a little skinnier, to make it easier to reach the back molars. Roll it over the lips, across the tongue, and inside the cheeks.įine Tip - This tip narrows down to a fine point, which makes it perfect for pinpointing very specific areas in the mouth.īite-n-Chew Tip - These tips are rounded and chewable, for practicing biting & chewing skills. Preefer Tip - This tip attachment is rounded with ridges all along the circumference for when a "rolling" action is desired for a different kind of sensory input. This age recommendation is not a hard-and-fast rule though - we've seen younger kids use the Probe Tip and older individuals use the Mini Tip. Mini Tip - This is a smaller version of the Probe Tip, designed for smaller mouths (about 2.5 years and under). It's bumpy on one side and striated on the other side for different levels of sensory input (the bumpy side provides more input than the striated side). Probe Tip - This is the most versatile & popular tip attachment. For example, the Dino-Bite in XT will feel tougher than the Krypto-Bite in XT. Heads up: Designs that are wider and "beefier" will feel tougher than designs that are more slender in the same toughness level. So XXT is usually best either for people who have chewed through the XT level already, and/or for anyone who already likes chewing on very hard items - things like legos, hard plastic toys, wooden items, etc. XXT is super firm, though, so we don't always recommend getting it right off the bat (some people find it uncomfortable chewing on something that firm). If someone does chew through things, it’s possible they may need the toughest XXT level eventually. Unless someone chews through or causes damage to anything else they chew on (chews through pencils, chews holes in shirts, etc.), in which case the XT level would be longer lasting. Usually we recommend going with the softest/standard level by default. XXT / Super Firm - this is the toughest level, which we call XXT ("Xtra Xtra Tough") It still has some “chewability” to it, but it’s fairly rigid / pretty firm.XT / Medium Firm - this is the middle level, which we call XT ("Xtra Tough") It's firmer, but still fairly chewy.Soft / Standard - this is the softest and chewiest level.Shipping was super fast, and the batteries are perfect for our z-vibe!ĪRK chew tools come in 3 color-coded toughness levels: Perfect!
