Is your little one a thumb sucker? Do they thwart all your efforts at stemming this habit? Seem to delight in the taste of the nail polish that tastes gross? You need a thumb thing!!! Super comfortable for little ones to wear and challenging to remove. Helps heal any wounds that may have developed due to thumb sucking and reduces rates of infection. Encourages them to stop without inhibiting movement, flexible enough to wear during play, mealtime and rest. As they just cover the thumb they are suitable for either hand.
Made from cotton with a super soft flanelette lining - they can withstand getting dirty and washed regularly. I do recommend putting them in a lingerie bag so they dont get lost or stretched in the wash.

The thumb area is purposely made a bit loose so it doesn’t get in the way of movement and there are no uncomfortable seams on the inside.
Please note that each thumb thing is handmade and unique. The fabric may not end up being in the same orientation as the picture and the snaps may be a different colour.
