ARK's Goshabunga Grabber® is a large version of the popular Smooth Grabber® oral motor chew tool.  The large version has a larger handle that's more comfortable for older teenagers and adults. 

The innovative P shape design has an easy-to-hold loop, with a long extension for reaching the back molars.  The Grabber® can be used:

• As an oral fidget for sensory seekers craving stimulation and proprioceptive input
• As a safe alternative to chewing on hands, knuckles, shirts, pencils, etc.
• As an alternative to tooth-grinding and/or thumb-sucking
• To help decrease oral defensiveness and food aversions
• To practice biting/chewing without the risk of choking
• To work on jaw strength and stability and oral motor skills
• To build oral strength, mobility, and control
• To satisfy the urge to chew for individuals who are fed through a g-tube

ARK Smooth Grabber® comes in 3 Colour-coded toughness levels:

• Standard (Red) -  These are the softest ones with the most “squishiness” and “give” to them.  Recommended for mild chewers and/or beginners practicing biting/chewing skills
• Medium Firm / XT (Lime Green) - XT stands for "Xtra Tough," recommended for moderate chewing.  These are firmer, but still chewy.
• Very Firm / XXT (Royal Blue) - XXT stands for "Xtra Xtra Tough," recommended for more avid chewing.  These are the most firm and provide the most resistance to the jaw.  No chew tool is indestructible, but these are very tough.

ARK manufactures the Grabber® in the USA!  It's medical grade, FDA compliant, and contains NO lead, phthalates, PVC, BPA, or latex.  

The original Grabber® measures about 12.7cm lengthwise, just under 4.8cm across the loop/handle, and 11mm thick.

This Goshabunga version measures about 17cm lengthwise, 5.3cm across the loop, and 12mm thick.

Caution: although these chew tools are sturdy and durable, no chew tool is indestructible. Some individuals (particularly those with heavy oral needs and aggressive biting/chewing) may be able to damage the tools. How long each tool lasts depends on the oral sensory needs of the child, whether or not they are seeing an occupational therapist if needed, as well as many other variables in his/her life.  Please supervise at all times and replace if necessary when the item shows signs of wear and tear.  For tougher versions of the Grabber, check out the Grabber XT and XXT.  For the toughest chew tool overall, see ARK's Y-Chew XXT.
