Caught you red handed with those yummy jackets Jon! He will chew and chew the rough side of the velcro for a good amount of time, this is a regular sight around here. This picture dont give this justice. He chomps like crazy on the velcro straps around the cuffs of these jackets, any velcro that exsists on these things. God help us if one of his brothers have the nerve to go out and leave for school or something and need their jacket! Yesterday during nap I seen him chewing on a strip of velcro on Andy's jacket (the yellow one) in his sleep! Don't think we want to go there. Can we say addiction? Gotta love these oral sensory issues. I'm thinking of buying some velcro and sewing it to some fabric so hopefully he will chew that instead of his brothers jackets, velcro on shoes, ect. Don't know of anything else that would feel similar but would be more appropriate.
I think making him his own velcro blanket is a great idea! Just like babies have those Tag's blankets, but this one could be differnt types, color and pieces of velcro. Great idea for the oral sensory issue! I wish I could get Caden away from that dam pacifier but he too needs the oral stimulation and I can't break it!
