Highly recommended for parents or therapists!
This Jiggler has been a helpful tool for my child’s oral sensory needs. The vibrations are gentle but effective in increasing awareness and improving muscle control. My child loves the fun design, and it’s easy to use and clean. Just remember to have AA batteries ready. Highly recommended for parents or therapists!

Great for speech therapy
It has three regimens of vibration. The Jiggler is of the size of the hand palm.My little one with special needs loves playing with them, likes the sensation. We will utilize it for the speech therapy too.The top can be detached and washed safely.The product should not be used for kids with the history of seizures being triggered by a vibration.Also, we had to replace the first shipment as one of the jigglers didn’t work.

Overpriced
Awesome product my daughter uses daily. But it still is only and electic toothbrush with the brush changed out for hard rubber and marked up 400%. You dont have to gouge families just because you claim its for special needs. Should be 20 dollars max. And if you’re doing it to make a difference try to get it to 15. Tired of paying and instant 400% more for this stuff

My autistic son.
My son has autism and displays oral sensory-seeking behavior, meaning he often needs oral input and tends to chew on objects. Every chewing toy I’ve given him in the past has ended up in the trash because he eventually tore them apart. However, this one has lasted over two months—which is honestly a miracle! Because of my past experiences, I’m giving this product four stars. If I could change anything, I’d suggest including three or four interchangeable tops so that when one breaks, it can easily be replaced. Aside from that, I really like this product and appreciate how well it’s held up.

Like a flip of a switch!
My toddler needs speech therapy and the therapist busted out something similar to this which worked great and recommended I get one. I started using it during the other sessions and super happy with how well it works. It’s easy to use. The size of small enough for kids to hold but big enough that it can’t be lost. Ours have been dropped, bitten, and slobbered on and still works great so that speaks ro the durability of it.

Cute, durable, waterproof, & replaceable batteries!
LOVE LOVE LOVE these! My 7 year old has severe oral aversion. She is extremely picky about what she chews on or puts in her mouth. She LOVES these! When awake, she literally has it on and in her hand all day long. It’s even waterproif, so she can have it in the pool ir bath! The motor lasts quite well! And I love that it takes AA batteries, so we don’t have to wait for it to charge or buy expensive specialty batteries. Thank you for making these cute, practical options for our kids!

BOUGHT AS A PHYSICAL THERAPY TOY FOR MY GRANDSON
My 1 year old grandson has a mild form of arthrogyposis. This condition caused weakness in his hands and arms. He attends physical/occupational therapy weekly and Mom and Dad do exercises with him at home. My son sends me photos from these sessions and I’m always on the lookout for the “toys” the physical therapist is using. This was one of them. It’s heavy enough that he has to use both hands to pick it up (his left arm/hand is weaker than his right so he tends not to use it) and it vibrates, which presumably stimulates some of his muscles. He loves it and doesn’t even know that it’s helping him to exercise his hands, arms and shoulders. I know this is an “off label” use of the item, but it’s perfect for what he needs it for.

Works great
These were recommended by our OT and my son is doing amazing with them. They’re big enough for him to grasp and not choke on.
