Chewigem - Emotichew' - Communication Flip Bangle - Red 'Leave me be' or Green 'Talk to me' - Teen/Young - Adult

The Emotichew is ever popular due to its stimability AND its secret communication powers.

The design for this came from the requirement to make a product that helped with letting the world know how you were feeling without having to speak. The red side implies leave me be, and the green side indicates you are happy to be engaged with. They also have debossed writing saying ‘ Talk to me’ or ‘leave me be’.

We drew inspiration from charity bands, they go unnoticed everywhere. They blend in. Charity bands would not withstand the level of chewing we see. The other benefit of a charity band is they are great to fidget with. You can squish them and play with them, making them by accident quite a nice stim aid in their own right. But they lack the strength required for our community.

If you don’t like red and green then our other range of child and adult flip bangles can work in exactly the same way, you just need to decide which colour means and let those around you know. Find those here.

• Once damaged, Chewigem should be discarded and replaced.

  All products through chewing will eventually show signs of wear and tear. How long that depends on a variety of factors and it can take time to find the right product for you.

  As a general guide, refer to the lifespan tables for an indication of longevity.

  Check regularly for damage.

  1. All products have been widely tested and you can be confident they are lead, latex, PVC, and phthalate-free.
  2. In children and any person with a learning disability, that does not understand risks, it is vital all products should be used with supervision and checked regularly for damage.
  3. As soon as wear and tear shows, the product should be discarded. This means a tear or puncture that could cause a larger section to break off.

  How to care for a Chewigem with a cord (e.g. pendants, Toggles & necklaces)

  You can wash these using any of the below options:

  6. Hot soapy water
  7. Washing machine on a low heat

  By removing the cord the silicone section can be washed in the same way as a cordless product above.

  Parts of the toggle strap are plastic and cannot cope with high heat and risks melting which is why we suggest the cord be removed.

  This is simple, just unloop from the board. Once washed, reverse the process, reattach the cord, slide the clasp down onto the cord, tie a knot at the end and slide the clasp back up over the knot.
