It's silly

Have these taken over your house?


They are SillyBandz. And that's what they are. Silly. Bands.

They are little rubber band bracelets. Shaped like different things. For all of you Children of the 80's, think Jelly Bands ala Madonna and Cindy Lauper. But in shapes.

Kids now are collecting them. And trading them. And wearing them. Wearing all of them. Wearing all of them that they own. All 79 of them. At once. Rumor has it that Davis in Mrs. K's class at school has them going from his wrist all the way up his forearm past his elbow! I cannot confirm or deny that current urban legend that is being talked about in the school cafeteria.

I did see a 50-ish woman at Target last week wearing about 10 of them. I stared at her.

I don't even know where you can get them. The Captain's mother bought some for Cooper. The rest he has wheeled and dealed to secure. And I think they also multiply on his arms overnight.

Cooper says these are currently the most popular ones for trading...the cross, the dove, the person, and the "flying deer" (also known as a reindeer I believe)

You could also choose vehicles....


Or animals....


I'm fond of the bunnies myself.....Because I love bunnies.




This is one of Cooper's favorites. Yes, that's his favorite team. He's slightly misguided and has fallen under the influence of my sister's family....(Connie, comments currently disabled for you...)


He also likes this water bottle too. But I think the blue should be on the bottom like the water and the white should be on the top like the bottle. Oh well, they didn't ask me.

So, that's about it. In case you've been wondering what is the latest kid fad, consider yourself informed.

Have a silly day people. I love you!
