  • Patent number: 6500196
    Abstract: A wrist tether for use in conjunction with a pacifier comprises a wristband having hook and loop fasteners arranged such that the wristband may be wrapped about an infant's wrist and removably secured thereto. A thumb support is attached to an end of the wristband and defines an aperture for receiving a thumb of a user so as to position the wristband at a desired position. The thumb support further defines a buttonhole spaced from the aperture for receiving a retaining member within a cavity therein. Therefore, the pacifier wrist tether removably positions and holds a pacifier at a desired position adjacent an infant's thumb.
