The present invention relates to a tether device for restricting the range of movement of a child relative to an older person. The tether device comprises a unitary stretch member having a pair of longitudinally extending sides, a pair of transversely extending sides, and a pair of end portions proximate each of said transversely extending sides. The unitary stretch member is stretchable between a relaxed state and taut state, such that the length of said unitary stretch member in the taut state is greater than the length of the unitary stretch member in the relaxed state. A first transversely extending side of said unitary stretch meber is secured to a first end portion of said stretch member to form a first loop a second transversely extending side of said unitary stretch member is secured to a second end portion of said stretch member to form a second loop. The first and second loops constitute first and second elastic wrist bands, respectively. An eleastic tether portion is provided between the first and second eleastic wrist bands. Preferred embodiments of the foregoing device are also disclosed.
