Ark Z-Vibe Spoon Tip Textured

Ark's Textured Spoon Tip transforms any Z-Vibe into an effective sensory feeding tool, designed to enhance oral awareness and facilitate the transition from puréed to textured foods. Ideal for therapists, parents, and caregivers working with individuals who have sensory processing needs, feeding difficulties, or oral motor challenges. The textured spoon tip provides a safe and effective means to improve feeding skills and oral sensory awareness.

Ark's Textured Spoon Tip Key Features:

• Thoughtful Design: Created by feeding therapist Debbie Lowsky, MS, CCC-SLP, the spoon tip features a bowl size that holds an appropriate amount of food, preventing overloading and ensuring manageable bites. 
  
• Textured Surface: Gentle bumps on the back of the spoon provide tactile stimulation, aiding in tongue stability and helping individuals acclimate to textured foods. 
  
• Versatile Sizes: Available in two sizes—small (approximately 7.62 cm x 1.91 cm) for infants and toddlers, and large (approximately 8.64 cm x 2.54 cm) for older children and adults—catering to various age groups and feeding needs. 

Ark's Spoon Tip Textured Benefits:

• Enhanced Oral Stimulation: When attached to the Z-Vibe® handle, the textured spoon tip helps ""wake up"" the mouth, increasing awareness and providing stimulation to the lips, tongue, cheeks, and jaw. 
  Facilitates Feeding Therapy: Assists in transitioning from puréed to textured foods, making it a valuable tool in sensory mealtime treatment plans.
