Default Help ! ! Puppy chewing on woodwork

Does anyone have a suggestion for a "durable" chew toy ? ? ? We have purchased so many so far & he just chews them up. We even got him one of those really hard rubber type bones & he started chewing pieces off of it & now he is chewing the wood trim around the door

We homeschool & while we are doing school we leave our three yorkies in the laundry room which is almost the size of a bedroom, so they have plenty of room to run & play etc. I just hate to keep him in his crate while we are doing school, but I can't let him destroy things either I thought about a spray but there is so much woodwork in there I'm afraid it might make them sick. I might add that he is 13 weeks old, my other two (8mo) never did this so I was shocked to find that he would (no pun intended)

I also thought about purchasing one of those exercise pens & putting it in our breezeway during the day, but that seems kinda cruel. I am at a loss, any suggestions ? If we did do that, how would it affect him even if we are with him the rest of the day? It usually takes us about 5-6 hrs to complete a school day.

My puppies are just like my kids & would not want to hurt them in anyway & I'm just afraid putting him up for that long would not be a good thing. When we got him I just thought I could put him behind the gate with the others & everything would be fine like before

If anyone has any ideas I would love to hear them. I'm still trying to figure out what I'm going to do when hubby sees what he's done
