Abstract
A U-shaped member is detachably engaged with the upper end of an elongate support member, the lower end of which embraces the shoulder of a student. The U-shaped member receives the back of the student's head and includes a forwardly extending leg to restrict movement of the head from a predetermined direction. The device prevents the student from observing his hands during the practice of manual dexterity exercises. The U-shaped member is pivotally movable for disengagement with the head.
