One of the real trendiest things for elementary age kids is making rainbow loom bracelets. It is a great activity, inexpensive, and can bring a lot of joy for your son or daughter. Not only that, but it will keep them occupied for hours learning the different bracelet patterns, And mixing and matching different colors of rubber bands.
When I was a kid, we used to make friendship bracelets for each other weaving different color strings. Today, arts and craft stores are making a killing from selling rubber band bracelets and the loom to go with it. The plastic Rainbow room was invented A few years ago in the United States, and has spread like wildfire. Other companies have infringed on the patent and made their own knock off looms, And have been sued as a result. There have been over 1.2 million units sold to date in United States.
My kids sit for hours with their friends making their bracelets of all sizes and shapes. They make them for their family members and friends and teachers. It is a great indoor activity that keeps kids occupied with out playing video games or watching TV.
Making rainbow loom bracelets are very easy. Kids can search YouTube for the specific bracelet they want to make, and there will be somebody there with step-by-step instructions. There are over 30 different bracelet making tutorials on the Internet. It is actually a great exercise in following directions, and hand-eye coordination. It also teaches students to do something with their hands and give what they make away. Sometimes our kids want things handed to them, And just want to be entertained with the television or video games. Loom bracelets are a great alternative.
My kids favorite bracelet is the triple single. It is an easy bracelet to make, Is about an inch wide, And takes about 10 minutes to make. Because you can interchange colors as you wish, there is an infinite amount of styles that are possible with the triple single. When my kids first learned how to make a triple single, They made A ton of them. We now have triple single bracelets all over our house.
So if there is an elementary student in your life, and you don't feel like buying them the latest Xbox game, Be sure to buy them A time of new bands in all the assorted colors and they will be happy.
