You can let your kids have fun with Silly Bandz bracelets. It is a product that entered the market in 2008 and has grown in popularity ever since. This craze doesn't happen with all products, but when it does, people want in on it.

Made from silicone rubber that are formed into interesting shapes, the material originated in Japan in 2002. From there, an American company used the material for toys and fashion accessories. They were made into animal shapes, letters and anything else imaginable.

They quickly became collectibles among children, trading them for the best color and a different size and such. Very often, children prefer to wear them in bunches, making an even bigger fashion statement. And, the interesting thing about them is that when they are removed from the rest, they just returned to their intended shape.

If you want to "dress up" your child with accessories, instead of choosing from inexpensive costume jewelry, choose these fun bracelets. Inexpensive costume jewelry has been in the news for a long time because of its high content of lead. You never know what you will end up with, so it's best to avoid them all together. Of late, lead has been replaced by cadmium, which is even more dangerous than the latter.

With these bracelets, you know that your kids are having fun, playing, trading, and accessorizing without having to worry one bit. In addition to that, parents love the fact that they are so inexpensive. In fact, they can easily be used as party gifts as well this way, you can ensure that the party will be successful, and your kids will be thrilled.

Of course, they are not only intended for girls. The obvious shapes including Marvel comic characters can attest to that, like Spider man, the Incredible Hulk, and many other very popular characters.
