The best chewy i have tried so far is the chubuddy tube, if your kid is an aggressive chewer i highly recommend this product!

Oooh, I'm tempted to try that. How hard/soft is it?

I bought the chewbuddy two aka chewbuddy SUPER as it was advertised as for aggressive chewers and I'm an adult (I'd seen a different necklace quickly disintegrated by a child and was anxious to get one that lasts). I buy them in packs of four as they're great but have been looking for something a little softer on the jaws.

Its a tube that is easy to bite down on but is very durable due to the material used (you cant bite through it) . They hace a tube thats 3/8" instead of 1/2" that is alot softer.
