Bouncy Bands--Need Feedback, Please
Happy Monday to all--has anyone used this product on desk legs? How well did it work for students? Thx!
I've never bought Bouncy Band, but lately I've been using bicycle innertubes with PVC pipe to serve the same purpose. BIcycle shops will give you old inertubes. Tie the inertube or cut strip of it around the back legs of the desk, and place 10" (more or less, depending on the kid) on the back legs also to keep the tubing getting pushed down. You can make your own version of Foot-fidget also with the same materials.
