silly bandzHalloween is coming up this weekend and I found the perfect trick or treat item for kids.  Every year it is the same ole stuff…candy, candy and more candy but this year I am going to pass out halloween shaped silly bandz.

It is sure to be a big hit with all the neighborhood kids!  I’m just a little worried that I will have some that will trick or treat several times in order to get more  bandz.  Kids are nuts for these things right now!

Collections with Real Value

Collecting coins, cards, or paraphernalia can be an enjoyable hobby that can also help you to amass some real value. Though collecting isn’t profitable enough to be a profession in most cases, it is fun to know that you have valuable or rare collectibles sought after by others. Some of the most valuable collectibles include collectible coins, baseball cards, comic books and postage stamps. These collectibles tend to retain their value regardless of changing market conditions. Provided demand for a collectible remains high, it is considered rare, but you want to avoid objects that are mere fads, like the Ty Beanie Babies of the 1990s. The best collectors are those that are able to identify an emerging trend, such as Silly Bandz bracelets, and invest early.

Collecting is a pleasurable activity that can be done as an individual, but is also great to be shared with friends, siblings, or even daughters and sons. You’ll be more interested in your chosen collectible if you have someone close to you that enjoys the same activity.

Kids Go Loony Over Silly Bandz

I always struggle to come up with gift ideas for my little niece. She is four years old, which is a particularly tough age to find gifts for if you ask me. By now she’s outgrown baby toys and is in the intermediate stage between early childhood and becoming a “big girl.” I’m ashamed to admit it, but most of my gift ideas recently have been generated by salesmen at the toy store, not myself.

But this year was different. One of my friends clued me in to Silly Bandz, which are little rubber band bracelets formed in the shape of a variety of characters. Personally, I don’t see the allure of these little toys, but apparently kids are going crazy over them. And my niece can be included in that group, as she was ecstatic when she opened her package from me and found a collection of animal Silly Bandz.

Silly Bandz: The Latest Trend in Kids’ Toys

Anyone who has raised children in recent years knows what Beanie Babies, Furbies, Tickle Me Elmo and Pokémon have in common, and now there is a new product to add to the list of fly by night toy fads: Silly Bandz. Essentially, Silly Bandz are simply rubber bands which have been molded into iconic shapes, such as Disney characters, animals, instruments and much more. And while it may not seem like glorified rubber bands would be a hot commodity for our technologically-advanced children, they are undeniably the latest craze.

A recent article from MSNBC highlights the company behind Silly Bandz, Brainchild Products. Business is booming right now, but people associated with the company recognize that the craze may not last. There is currently an extensive marketing campaign underway to fuel public knowledge about the fad and drive sales before it—like all trends—inevitably fizzles.

The silly bands were a perfect idea for my nephews Easter Baskets.  The oldest especially loved the Rock Bands although I thought the Spring bands were the cutest.

These bands come in a variety of sizes, shapes and colors.  Kids love to wear them and trade them!  The only problem is they can’t get enough!
