Abstract
A device which discourages thumb-sucking when worn on a thumb. The device comprises an elongate sleeve which fits over the thumb. An air passageway which extends from one end of the sleeve to the other is formed therein. A flange extending outwardly from the sleeve prevents both ends of the air passageway from being insertable into the mouth. Straps attached to the sleeve removably retain the device on the thumb.
