When we go out to eat, Colin is always losing his crayons – they roll off the table because he isn’t paying attention and then he wants to crawl under the table and dig them out (YUCK!). SO, NiNi Baby to the rescue!! We were sent use the Crayon Bungee to review – and we quickly put it to work!
I completely expected the Crayon Bungee to be fabric, but it’s not! It’s made of a non-porous material that feels a lot like a rubberband that’s stretched and won’t pop (does that make sense?!).
What NiNi Baby Says:
Crayon Bungee is a colorful, functional, portable, durable, non-toxic tether strap that is designed to keep crayons from rolling or dropping to the floor.
Crayon Bungee brings a new fun factor to coloring, while keeping the crayons nearby. Just twist in the included crayons, and anchor the strap. Functional, educational, chic, safe and fun – all in one!
Great for use in restaurants, airplanes, highchairs, and more!
Product Features
- Two ways to anchor tether using either suction cup for table tops, or looping strap for other surfaces. Crayons fit snugly, limiting removal by toddlers. Holds 3 standard crayons (included)
- Clasp feature allows altering between suction cup and strap anchors while keeping crayons attached to tether. Anchors also attach to Toy Bungee toy and cup tether
- Vinyl package can be used as a carrying pouch
- Easily hand washable in warm soapy water
- Non‐toxic, including BPA, PVC, Lead and Phthalate free
How to use the Crayon Bungee:
What I LOVE:
- I love that it is NOT fabric.
- That the Crayon Bungee is very easy to clean.
- We no longer have to fetch lost Crayons!
- I love the little clasp – it’s so cute and is not troublesome to open and/or close.
- My favorite anchor is the long piece.
What I would change:
- Most Crayon boxes (including the box that comes with your Crayon Bungee) have 4 Crayons, so I’d like to see a 4th holder on the Bungee.
- I like the suction cup anchor, but it’s pretty short compared to the long anchor. I felt like Colin couldn’t use it as effectively when we were out and about.
Other Thoughts:
- When I first opened the package, I thought there was NO WAY I was going to fit the Crayons into the holders! It takes a little work to get them in there, but once they are in, they are IN! Also, when I was putting the Crayons in their holders, I felt like I was going to break them. I didn’t. But, I feel like you have to find a hold that works for you.
