STRETCHY SHAPES INTRODUCES BACK-TO-SCHOOL BAND ETIQUETTE PRIMER
A simple guide for enjoying animal bracelets, for students and teachers
Birmingham, AL. – As the nation’s students return to school, so will the dozens of rubber-band, fun-shaped animal bracelets that line each child’s wrist. A collecting and trading frenzy that made national news last school year, no one came closer to the craze than Stretchy Shapes, whose demand has soared from 504,000 to 3.6 million bracelets shipping each week to retailers across America. With some schools opting to ban animal bracelets outright due to their mis-use on school grounds, Stretchy Shapes now introduces a Back to School Band Etiquette Primer to serve as a guide to the do’s and don’ts of wearing, collecting, and trading bands.
“Just as there are rules for everything else in life, we absolutely feel that kids can gain from having a guidebook to allow them to enjoy Stretchy Shapes at school,” explains April Mraz, founder and design diva at Stretchy Shapes. “Our Back to School Band Etiquette Primer is quick, easy and written in a way that kids can instantly grasp. It’s also really handy for teachers and parents as they help students understand ‘band etiquette’, and can be used as in the classroom and at home as a tool for setting some appropriate limits and, when those limits are respected, rewarding and incentivizing students.”
Stretchy Shapes Back to School Band Etiquette Primer can be downloaded free from Stretchy Shapes website, www.stretchyshapes.com.
