Skoobandz Review
Skoobandz
Reviewed by Emma Legge and William
My eight year old son William was thrilled when the postman delivered these packs of Skoobandz, despite never having heard of them! The colour and packaging appealed to him although he first confused them for the rubber wristbands. He received packs of glowies, neon and candies which were promptly handed over to his ten year old sister! They are good quality and after a week on a scooter, still look new. William thought the idea of putting them on his scooter was great, as a few of his friends have the same scooter so this is a great way to personalise his.
As parents, my husband and I were a bit bemused by why you would want to pay £2.50 for a 3 pack of rubber bands that just get put on a scooter but William spent the first few days actually wearing them as wristbands before getting round to adding them to his scooter! He has enjoyed the novelty of them and visited the website advertised on the bands. He was very excited to discover their Bands for Bandz offer where he can receive a free party pack for collecting 50 unwanted rubber bands… no rubber band in our house is safe now!
Three bands alone look odd on a scooter so if you were to let your child start collecting this latest craze, be prepared to allow them at least a few packs to make their scooters look 'really cool'!
Overall, the bands are not useful, they serve no particular purpose and are not designed to be purchased just once as I'm sure most children would want at least a pack of each colour range, however as a novelty birthday present or a treat, they're one of the better collecting crazes out there.
RRP: £2.50 per pack or £12.50 for the full set (with FREE delivery on all orders).
Rating: 4/5
Each pack contains 2 thin and 1 thick brightly coloured Skoobandz.
