Silly Bandz are the latest plastic craze among school-age kids
Now that those of us above the age of 11 have heard about them, does that mean that Silly Bandz (or Crazy Bandz, or Zanybandz) are not cool anymore
Every so often a trend emerges among grade-school (and sometimes junior-high) kids, involving something plastic and collectible.
Crazy Bandz look like friendship bracelets
they're all sorts of crazy colors and silly shapes. They don't come with alliteration- you must supply your own. So, this means that kids are collecting them, and websites are springing up to display, sell and trade them. Just crack open the browser of your choice and look for "crazy bandz", "silly bandz" or "zanybandz", and you'll get the idea.
Collectibles Come and Go
If you're a kid, remember that these things will become uncool overnight, at a time that's both not of your choosing and very soon. If you're a parent, see above, but at least you understand what that means.
