Rainbow Loom

The summer of 2013 we did a lot of really fun things but the one thing it will be remembered for is the little elastic band bracelets made on the Rainbow Loom. We saw the bracelets in RI where 2 girls were selling them on the beach. Emily and Emma had the loom soon after that (thank you Molly) and Emily has never looked back. She watches YouTube videos (made by little girls) to learn how to make new patterns. All girls (and some boys)  go crazy for  the bracelets. When Emily brings her loom the Sudden Pitch the kids line up for her to bracelet for them, and she fills every last order, sometimes sitting for 90 minutes to make them.
As a "money collector" she really wants to sell them. On Tuesday we went to the beach with Emma and the girls had a plan to sell them. Emily put our all her bracelets on the boogie board and waited...and the girls came quickly. She made $15 on tuesday ($1 per bracelet) and she wanted to go back on Wednesday! We did and she was busier than ever and brought home $19!
