5 out of 5 starsShipping was so fast! Got the item within days! Soft material and my little guy was actually excited to wear it! The bitter nail polish didn’t work… this is definitely going A LOT better!

5 out of 5 starsWhat an excellent product! My 4 year old has been a thumb sucker from 16 weeks gestation (witnessed via ultrasound!). Recently, after months of reminding him not to suck his thumb (an almost endless task!), using bandaids in an attempt to prevent thumb sucking, and years of him acquiring illnesses due to his habit, we were met with no success and a lot of frustration. This thumb guard, however, is a game changer. He actually likes to wear it, largely due to the train print on the fabric. It very effectively reminds him not to suck his thumb without his father or I having to nag him. He can do 99% of his normal tasks with it on (it comes off for handwashing and eating meals in order to give him full dexterity for utensil use), and he knows he's going to become a big boy by using it. Thank you so much for this amazing product!!!

About MakahiloMade
My Story
Thumb Huggers™ , thumb and finger sucker guards were created in 2013 when my daughter, then 7, was struggling to stop sucking her thumb. She would cry in the mornings in frustration about having sucked her thumb unintentionally during the night. So I designed something for her and two weeks later her thumb sucking habit was broken. Then I started making them for friend's children...and now here we are. I have made thousands of thumb, finger and hands guard for children and am happy to be a part in helping them break their habit.
Thumb Huggers™ are made with 100% cotton fabric and heavy duty fabric. They are made in a wide variety of fabrics and themes. It's important for your child to want to wear one, so I try to make most popular themedd fabric in stock and ready to make your child's Thumb Hugger™.
