Abstract: An identification apparatus for infants utilizes a pair of elastic bands fabricated from a rubber-like material each having different peripheral lengths. The larger band is adapted for engagement about the wrist of an infant, while the smaller band engages an index finger of the infant. The elastic bands are joined by an elongated transparent strap having the ends thereof fastened to the bands. An elongated sheet of paper-like material is secured within a cavity formed by folding over each elongated marginal edge of the strap so as to have indicia carried by a lateral surface of the flexible sheet exposed through the transparent strap residing on the hand of the infant extending over the knuckles.
