Abstract
The present disclosure provides a safety cover for the hands or feet of a baby to prevent them scratching themselves and which can be applied and removed easily. The safety cover comprises an elongated elastic cuff ring with a plurality of separate gripping elements arranged on its interior surface such that they span a majority of the length of the inner surface. This design allows the elongated cuff to simply be folded back on itself to disengage the gripping elements from skin contact. When folded, the safety cover can be applied or removed with no effort, and the structure of the cuff ring also causes it to maintain an elastic tension about the wrist or ankle of a child while folded to facilitate use as a normal glove, mitten or sock.
