Finger mounted toothbrush with an internal reinforcing skeleton
A finger mounted toothbrush system includes a sheath constructed of a flexible, textured substrate; a rigid, pronged skeleton that fits into the substrate; and a retaining ring that secures the sheath to the skeleton. Prongs of skeleton may be constructed of thermoplastic that can be hardened to fit a user's finger size.

FINGERTIP CLEANING APPARATUS
A fingertip cleaning apparatus having a three-dimensional structure. The three-dimensional structure includes a fingertip receiving portion having a conical wall, a rounded apex wall at a distal end of the conical wall, a cavity having a top end that is closed by the rounded apex wall, an opening into the cavity defined, at least in part, by a lower edge of the conical wall, and a gripping portion including a flap wall that extends from a proximal end of the conical wall of the fingertip receiving portion.
Hand Attachable Animal Washing Apparatus
A hand attachable animal washing apparatus, attachable upon the hand of a user, is provided enabling singlehanded control of waterflow and application of water into the coat of an animal. Control of waterflow though a molded body member is enabled by operation of a compressible portion disposed to control a valve assembly disposed interiorly within the molded body member. A proximal arced edge is disposed projected rearwardly from the molded body member and curved downward to direct waterflow away from a user operating the device, particularly when the device is elevated above a user, as when washing a large animal such as a horse, for example. A user may thereby control and apply water to an animal with one hand while securing and comforting the animal with the other hand.

Surface Attachable Washing Apparatus
A surface attachable washing apparatus is provided to enable easy control of water flow through a molded body member. A valve assembly, disposed interiorly within the body member, is actuated by simple depression of an overlying portion of an obverse surface of the molded body member, to toggle a valve assembly between each of a closed position and an open position. Water flow is therefore controllable by manual pressure to alternately emit and prevent water flow sprayed through each of a plurality of outlets. At least one suction cup enables selective positioning of the molded body member upon a surface distally situated relative to an existing water outlet to which the apparatus is connected. A user may therefore position the apparatus at a desired height in the bath room, for example, to correspond with a child who can then easily control of the water flow during bath time.

Hand attachable animal washing apparatus
A hand attachable animal washing apparatus, attachable upon the hand of a user, enables singlehanded control of water flow and application of water into the coat of an animal. Control of water flow though a molded body portion is effective by singlehanded operation of a valve assembly disposed interiorly within the molded body portion. A user is enabled to open and close the valve assembly by compressing a compressible portion disposed proximally overlying the user's palm when wearing the apparatus upon one hand. A user may thereby control and apply water applied to an animal with one hand while securing and comforting the animal with the other hand.

CHILDREN'S FINGER TOOTHBRUSH WITH BITE PROTECTION AND TACTILE FEEDBACK
An outer elastomeric layer forms a nonogonal-shaped hollow tube for a finger toothbrush to be used by an adult caregiver to brush a child's teeth. The toothbrush has a first, rigid portion with a rigid inner lining configured to receive a middle phalange of the caregiver's finger and a second, flexible portion configured to receive a distal phalange of the caregiver's finger. The rigid inner lining may further comprise extensions and depressions to spread the pressure from a child's bite. The second, flexible portion may allow for better tactile response when the toothbrush is in the mouth of a child.
