Rainbow Loom is a kit used to weave colourful bracelets and necklaces. It features colourful rubber bands and a plastic pegboard for assembling rubber bands into an assortment of items. Do you know that Rainbow Loom is invented by a Malaysian who is now residing in Michigan? You can read more here – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainbow_Loom. Lately it has become very popular over here and missy received a box of Rainbow Loom from our friend in Bangkok.
I tried to make a bracelet but just don’t have the patience. I am also pretty bad with this kind of crafty stuff. I still prefer paper craft. So one weekend, my sister came for a visit and she helped missy make a colourful bracelet.
I guess I have to leave it to my sisters to make more bracelets and charms with missy.
Just today, I found a different version called Loom Band at the market in the neighbourhood. This one cost RM10 only but it doesn’t have the pegboard. Actually there are different versions available now.
I remember using different colour rubber bands to make our own skipping rope when I was a kid. Brings back fun memories. I guess kids these days aren’t into such things anymore.
Your sister is so patient. Now missy can make her own rainbow band. The loom band also looks interesting.
My girls are not introduced with this new game yet, but my friend’s daughter has give them two bracelets.
I have totally no patience and time for Loom too ha! But Cass loves it and is so patient! She can spend a few hours just on it and make a bunch of bracelets for her friends 🙂
I ordered Rainbow Loom from milkadeal.com weeks ago and they are late in their delivery. I cant wait to get my hands on them 😛
