More and more often we get questions about buying a bite chain for small children. From what age is a bite chain suitable and what do you choose for little ones with chewing needs?
In younger children, chewing needs are part of normal development. Small children often put everything in the mouth to learn about different structures and materials. That is why it is also important to let your child discover this.

However, when children older than 3 years still put materials in the mouth, you can consider that as a less ‘normal’ development. There seems to be a lot of self-regulation by chewing. Behavior that is not desirable to unlearn, but to meet by offering an alternative. Then consider buying a bite chain for your child. This way your child can safely reduce tension in the classroom and concentrate better.
As I described, exploring with your mouth is a natural development that you should not deprive your child of. Of course, young children do need something to relieve the pain with teeth coming through. However, for safety reasons, chewing chains should not be recommended to children under 3 years of age.
And does your child especially need something with texture, because it massages the gums more than a smooth chewing chain.
So if your child is under 3 years old, the use of a chewing chain is not recommended. Of course you want to support your little one in relieving the pain when the first teeth come through. The regular bite toys with texture offer a solution, but certainly also our chewing jewelry when it hangs around the neck of you as a parent. Our bite toys can also be used with your little one to chew safely.
