Silly Band Factory Review and Giveaway - THREE Winners!

If you are a parent then you know all of the craze right now is silly bands! My oldest son loves them and everyone in his school is crazy about them as well. I know this because: 1) His friends all have them and their parents talk about them and 2) Every single time they send home a note about upcoming events where we can send items, silly bands is always on the list!

So I found an awesome site that I know you guys will love....Silly Band Factory! You might be asking yourself, "What is Silly Band Factory?" Well it is an awesome product that allows you and your children to make your/their very own silly bands! You can make any shape that you wish, including words, names, etc. You can play around with the pegs and make unique silly bands that you cannot buy at the store. This would be great to make for your best friends!

I received a kit and here is what the kit looked like after we opened it:

You get instruction sheets that include a few designs to help you out, a generous amount of bands, and a bag of pegs. We opted to use the design of an airplane and here was our result:

It was so simple and my son really enjoyed it! He was extremely excited and he kept telling me other silly band designs that he wanted to make! It is a great activity that you can do with your kids, so I think this product is wonderful - and the end product is useful and fun for them as well! I think the Silly Band Factory had a wonderful idea behind the product! And the people are super-nice as well that developed the products - very family-oriented! I wish you guys much success with your product!

**Just a note - the first batch I made, I "forgot" that they were in the oven and they melted. Yes, I was about 20 minutes OVER the time limit...lol...so it was definitely my fault. But the reason why I am mentioning this is because, other than the bands, the rest of the products were fine - nothing caught fire, nothing became damaged. The products are designed to withstand the heat of the oven (225 degrees) and I think this is important because as a parent we tend to "forget" things and I like that the fact that this product is forgiving! =)
