chewing toys

[Helen79]

1 mindee whose 14months still likes to chew and puts everything in her mouth. She rarely plays with the toys, just wants to chew them. I've bought her some new teethers so she can still chew without ruining all the toys.
I've been updating risk assessments as she's had a few accidents falling over with toys in her mouth and being doing obs for her and was wondering if there's a proper term for it, maybe oral sensory something or am I overthinking it and I should just write that she likes to chew on things?

sounds to me like shes teething!!!! she will grow out of it...meanwhile enjoy the dribble.

she's definitely teething but does enjoy biting and chewing. If I give her paper to draw on she's tear in into shreds with her teeth. I was wondering if there was a nicer way of wording it in any paperwork about how she explores the toys.

keep it simple she just chews toys (all the time!)
