Silly Bandz, silly fun . . .
CALEB’S SILLY BANDZ

SILLY BANDZ!!! I have to share these. They’re so FUN and if you haven’t seen them you should know about them. They’re called Silly Bandz and I understand that it’s really only here in Birmingham and in Nashville,Tenn, that they’re all the rage with the kids. It must be true because I asked a friend with a 9 year old daughter if she knew about them and she hadn’t and she only lives an hour away. But that’s not the case around here, stores sell out within hours when new stock comes in. Think Beenie Baby…
WHAT DO KIDS-young and teens-DO WITH THEM?? They wear them on their wrists and trade them, some kids glue them into drawings, a little girl even blogs about them. They’re totally fun!! Make terrific inexpensive, unique Christmas gifts for kids and adults. They could sure brighten the doldrums of the office setting. Imagine getting something from a co-worker, undoing it, laying the rubber band down on the desk and seeing that it’s a shape! The possibilities are endless for offices.
WHERE DO YOU GET THEM? We got these at Office Max. They’re also in specialty toy store shops, or online, key word: Silly Bandz. They come in packs of 24 and there’s a variety of other shapes. Letters, dinosaurs, monuments…
Just wanted to share the fun!

While I was writing Caleb took pictures so you could see how they look when worn.

where did you get the star??????????
My kids are forever trading their bandz so I’m pretty sure that one was traded for. However, Office Max had a set of shapes and there may have been a star in there. Have to ask my kids tomorrow. They’re sleeping now.

A Silly Bandz kiosk has officially opened at the Opry Mills Mall near Build-A-Bear. They have all the styles and will be getting the upcoming new styles as well. They will ship for free.
