Silly Bandz in the Classroom: PROS

  • Inexpensive reward for positive behavior. Your kids will be drooling over these and will do whatever you ask to get one.

  • Use them in a teaching lesson for grouping, compare and contrast, writing prompts, etc. Your kids are sure to be engaged in the lesson!

  • There is a slight risk that they may cut off hand circulation.
  • Silly Bandz could end up being a distraction to learning.
