our recommendations
Stop Thumb Sucking Bundle
Ideally children need 3 Thumbsies® thumb guards for each thumb they suck, as it is important that they wear their thumb guard all the time (both day and night). By having 3 guards you will always have a clean one to pop on. For the best results we highly recommend our Thumb Sucking Bundles, where you can choose your favourite fabrics. Buying a bundle gives you the best package to help your child to give up thumb sucking.
