Features:
Invented by Debra C. Lowsky, MS, CCC-SLP, ARK's Goshabunga Textured Grabber® is a large version of the popular Textured 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.

It's available in 3 color-coded toughness levels:

Soft -  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 - Recommended for moderate chewing.  These are firmer, but still chewy.
 

Very Firm / XXT - 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 5'' lengthwise, just under 1.9'' across the loop/handle, and .44'' thick.  This Goshabunga version measures about 6.8'' lengthwise, 2.1'' across the loop, and .46'' thick.
 

What does ''Goshabunga'' mean?  It's a word coined a long time ago by one of ARK's founders that means ''really big!''
