Funny Bandz School Project

By:


The school project of funnybandz.biz is almost finished. It is a project in which students have to build an online store. The items this site sells are funny bandz, also called silly bandz.

They have taken children's lives by storm. They are worn by kids of all ages from those in pre schools to the ones in high school. But they are of course also worn by older people, even

celebrities like Shakira and Neil Patrick Harris. Shops are running out of stock regularly. They are spreading like a virus.

But now, the hype from America also comes to Europe. But what are funny bandz, you think?
-They are also called silly bandz.
-They are made of silicone rubber.
-When you wear them, they are like a regular bracelet.
-But when you take them off, they revert to their original shape.
-They are available in hundreds of themes, shapes and colours.
-Multiple usage: ribbon, rubber bands, bracelets,...
-Worn by a lot of celebrities. E.g. Shakira, Neil Patrick Harris,...
-For boys, girls, adults,... Simply for everyone!


The original shaped silicone rubber bands were created in 2002 by a Japanese design team who wanted to introduce a more environmentally-sustainable rubber band as an office product. Robert Croak, owner of Toledo, Ohio-based BCP Imports (known for distributing the Livestrong wristbands), encountered the bands on a business trip and decided to re-purpose them as a toy by making them larger and thicker, and marketing them as a kids' fashion accessory.
From then on, other businessman have seen the hype that these bracelets are and will be creating and are picking it up to resell them.
The first Silly Bandz sets were sold online in November 2008. In early 2009, Learning Express in Birmingham, Alabama became the first retail store to stock Silly Bandz. By fall they were a strong seller, and became widespread across the Southern United States. Popularity began to move up the East coast of the United States, reaching New Jersey, Long Island, and Staten Island in November the same year.

Have a nice day.
