For some reason, these pet Silly Bandz seem weaker than the other shapes. I broke a duck just putting it on and broke a pig taking it off. My friend also broke a pig taking it off. I haven't had any problems with my jungle or rock music Silly Bandz.

This set of Silly Bandz - Pets was a special request from my 8 year old granddaughter for one of her Christmas gifts. It took me forever to figure out just what she was talking about. Even when I saw the picture of the product here on Amazon I still had trouble understanding why she would want these. It turned out they were all the rage at school.

When she opened the package on Christmas day her eyes lit up like stars. There were 6 different shapes in this package, 24 pieces in total, all very recognizable animals. She thoroughly enjoyed using them as jewelry (bracelets for arms and legs) and in the way you would usually use string to make various shapes of string art. They also function completely well as an actual rubber band.

There really isn't much to this product and yet it seems to be a very resilient product which gives hours of fun. The bands spring back into their original shape after being stretched out and indeed, one band was left on a doll's wrist for a month and resumed it's shape when I found it and removed it. I now have a purple puppy of my very own. Or until my grandgirl comes over and finds it!

So my sister started telling me that she had to have these bandz and that everyone in the "world" has them. So I naturally had to buy these for her. I have to say I have bought a bunch of these (Silly Bandz and the knock off brands) and these bands I mean "Bandz" are the best. The othre brands seem to be cheap and lower quality. Already one have broke of the knock off while the Silly Bandz still hold strong. Also Silly Bandz seem to be thicker which is a +. These bands are not that tight either which is very important cause we don't need hands to start turning purple. Fun shapes and great quality. These are a + in my book and the kids love trading them. So my advise to parents, stick to the name brand this time around, your kids will love you for it.

These say Sillybandz but they are not Sillybandz. The bands I received were called "I change color bands" and they said "pets" but they were ALL dogs. I am very disappointed with what I got...I don't even like dogs.

I ordered silly bandz as prizes for field day at school. They were a great hit!

I get that these are popular now, though not sure why. But they're cute and look like they do in the pic in real life. I bought these to go in my DD's easter basket - no one she knows trades these so they have just been for her personal use and fun. For they price they were worth it to put in some easter eggs!

I was concerned about being charged and never receiving my order of silly bandz as the previous reviewer . I was surprised to find a package from Brainchild containing my order. The silly bandz breaks easily and has no educational value. Otherwise it is the latest trend for the little ones.

We just started the animal band craze at our house. I think the Christmas banz on this site are a little high so I will be looking around and shipping cost almost as much as a package but I don't know how hard they are to find with this being new to us. What I DO KNOW is they are educational. First my 3 year olds have learned about colors and shapes because they are overly interested in them because of their older brother. My 5 year old is learning about giving and trading among his friends. A direct quote from him "Mom these animal bracelets all cost the same but you have to trade 3 shapes to get one dinosaur." This is the key to bartering and trading. This is a lesson in understanding marketing and value at the age of 5. So yes these things have a huge amount of EDUCATIONAL potential.

Brainchild charged me immediately upon my order. 6 weeks later I still have nothing to show, and Brainchild has been completely unresponsive to any contact.

My kids love the bandz. I get them from a local retailer here in town that charges $5 a pack for them. It beats payin for the shipping, but i am looking for a place that will make them in different shapes. I love the fact that these things do teach children the art of trading and how to actually "look over" something before you trade for it. My son traded a dino. for a broken sun. Now he will look over EVERY bandz before he even begins to talk about trading! To me....its a valuable life lesson.
