quick note on SillyBandz

Hey - I mentioned the SillyBandz as a fidget tool - notice I did NOT mention it as like chewelry - I doubt it's good for chewing on as it's thin and could easily break and be a choking hazard - definitely only for fidgeting with your HANDS, not your mouth. Just had to quickly say that!! :) More later - am getting ready for work but wanted to clarify that.

SillyBandz also make an excellent shape for tracing around. A student has to be very careful not to distort the shape as she traces and that results in more graded movements in the UE's. Make it a vertical task and increase the difficulty.
