5 out of 5 starsMy daughter was not able to take this one off. She calls it her "ballerina thumb" and it has worked well. It's well made and would recommend.

4 out of 5 starsMy daughter was really excited to get these and use them. She tried wearing them to school and at night but did not feel they were comfortable enough for prolonged wear. Great concept, and I am still hopeful. Maybe fabric will soften up with more washing!

5 out of 5 starsVery nicely made! I however did not measure the greatest so it is a little difficult to get on his hand but will likely order again in the future. Much less sweaty than the mittens we had on him and safer for his fingers

About ThumbHuggers
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 heavy duty 100% cotton fabric. They are made in a wide variety of fabrics and themes. It's important for your child to want to wear one, so it's important that I keep fun fabric in stock and ready to make your child's Thumb Hugger™.
