Ethology necklaces were designed from a desire to create a chew necklace that not only meets the nuanced sensory needs of neurodiverse children, but also acknowledges our role as creators in ensuring our product is sustainable and Earth conscious. Across the market, such necklaces are traditionally made from silicone, which results in a rigid and hard product that can be harsh on developing teeth. The innate properties of natural rubber however, creates a chew necklace that is superior in functionality, offering a strong, flexible and chewy pendant that offers children hours of genuine sensory input. The natural rubber pendant also is biodegradable.
Each two-pack order contains:
• 100% Natural Rubber biodegradable pendant
• Cotton woven cord with breakaway safety clasp for added safety
• Ultra-chewy with added texture to provide satisfying oral-sensory input
• Non-toxic, free from BPA, Phthalate, PVC and Nitrosamine
• Gender neutral design
• Complies with AU, CA, EU and US toy safety standards

The Santo: Natural Rubber Sensory Chew Necklace Two Pack For Kids of All Ages
As a registered clinical art therapist, I endorse this chew necklace for the way it thoughtfully supports sensory regulation and emotional steadiness. Oral‑motor input can be an essential pathway for many neurodivergent children, helping them organise their nervous system, reduce overwhelm, and stay connected to their environment in a safer, more grounded way. What I appreciate most is the intentionality behind its design - a material that’s gentle on developing teeth, textures that genuinely meet sensory needs, and an earth‑conscious approach that aligns with the values many families hold. It’s a considered, therapeutic tool that offers comfort, regulation, and dignity in everyday moments.
