Does anyone know what in the world is so spectacular about these “silly bandz“? If you haven’t heard of them, they’re these little rubbery bands that are in the shape of animals, dinosaurs, etc. They are extremely popular here in Huntsville and my boys are begging for them!! I let Carter get a pack for a reward this past week. Apparently, all the kids try to wear as many as they can on their arms and they trade them with their friends.
You can by a pack of 24 for $8.00 at Zazzy’s here in Huntsville. They are the only place in town that carries them so many people just order them online. It’s amazing how something so simple can be such a hit!
Jamey - I've noticed all the volleyball girls wearing them too! They have only one or two at a time…guess that's the 'cool' way for older girls. It's always going to be something isn't it!? Remember the jewelry in our day that had the plastic chains and charms! Wonder if that will come back around?
Stacy - All of our Huddle kids wear them…and they trade them!! On FB, they'll say, "anyone want to trade bracelets? I've got a dinosaur…"
Crazy! 🙂
Jessa Mullen - they are huge here in Birmingham too.. Why couldn't I think of this !!
Alexis - Brooke,
Great blog! I don't have children, but think the bracelets would be a great gift for my friends kids… any idea where you can order these online?
mandy - Let's bring back friendship pens!
ebeth - The Riverchase Galleria in Birmingham has a kiosk selling the bands until October 31.

Anonymous - When I go to school, we all obsess over silly bandz. I got one in the shape of a shart, and I was begging my mom for some more but the store was sold outta everything cept' princess and Im a tomboy so it would NOT work for me.
