Measuring up for a fabric thumb guard for kids, to help them break the thumb sucking habit, is really simple.
Each Thumbsie® is handmade, please do ensure that you take care when measuring to get the best fit.
Please measure the length from the tip of the thumb to the bend in the wrist, as shown in the diagram
Our thumb guards are available in five different sizes. When ordering your fabric pattern please select one of the following:

Get your child to choose from our fun selection of fabrics. We recommend buying three for each thumb they suck.
If you find that you need a bigger size then we do offer a bespoke service, making them suitable for teenagers too. All of our thumb guards are secured by Velcro around the wrist, are adjustable, and will, therefore fit all size wrists.
The Thumbsie® will fit either the left or right hand. Your child is going to be wearing the fabric thumb guard during the day as well as night time, so we highly recommend buying three for each thumb that they suck, so you always have enough to maintain good hygiene. Our Thumb Sucking Book Bundles are a great discounted solution.

To encourage children to wear a Thumbsie® thumb guard, we have created a thumb sucking reward chart. It is easy to use and you can add in your own tasks, set your own goals and choose the rewards.
Packs include 3 A4 thumb sucking reward charts with over 150 stickers, so you should have enough for 3 weeks.
Multi-award winning Thumbsie® was created from a real need when Jo Bates’s, founder Thumbsie Ltd, third daughter Isabel needed help to stop thumb sucking!
