I need some things that you can do with rubber bands other than tie up your hair, make a ukulele, make a bracelet, make a dream catcher, or a giant rubber band ball. Some creative things please.
Answer
1. Keep Food Fresh â Simply wrap a rubber band around a bag of chips, salad, or baking flour to seal in the freshness.Rubber Band Lunch
2. Act as a Reminder â Wrap a rubber band around a specific page in your planner (and also around the front cover to prevent bending) or around your wrist as a reminder to get something done.
3. Rubber Padding â Wrap a couple rubber bands around a TV remote or ash tray to prevent it from sliding and scratching the tableâs surface.
4. Hold Various Objects Together â â¦like pencils or index cards. This one is obvious.
5. A Bookmark â Wrap a rubber band around the front cover and through the middle of the book to whatever page you finished on. Next time you pick up the book the first page that isnât rubber-banded will be the page you left off on.
6. A Hair Tie â Perhaps you could make a ponytail.Rubber Band Hair Tie
7. A Paper or Poster Scroll â Roll it up and put a rubber band around it. Itâs ready for storage.
8. A Safety Strap for Eye Glasses â Break a rubber band in half and tie each end to the part of the glasses frame that sits over your ears. You can secure the glasses to your face if you make the rubber band short enough.
9. Finger Exercises â Bunch all your fingers together and place them through the center of a rubber band. Spread your fingers out and let them contract. Or, wrap a rubber band from your index finger to your pinky and move your index finger away from the other fingers. Repeat this process for the other fingers.Rubber Band Finger Exercises
10. A Handle Grip â Wrap several rubber bands around the end of a pole or stick to create a handy grip.
11. Secure a Lid onto a Container â If you donât want the contents to spill, put a rubber band around it.
12. Quick Tagging â Are these batteries at the bottom of my bag charged or uncharged? Tag your batteries with rubber bands so you never have to guess. You can differentiate between various groups of objects by tagging each group with a certain color rubber band, or a specific number of visible rubber bands.
13. Stress-Relieving Rubber Band Ball â If made soft enough, a rubber band ball can make for a perfect stress relieving squeeze toy. It helps out when youâre in a fidgety mood.
14. Mark the Level of Liquid Remaining in a Solid Color Container â Take a paint can for instance⦠before you pound the top back on, wrap a rubber band around the outside of the can at the same level as the paint remaining in the can. Next time you need it youâll know exactly how much you have left in a single glance.Stress Relieving Rubber Band Ball
15. Slingshot / Catapult â Every kidâs favorite thing to do with a rubber band, but if you think hard enough, I bet there are some practical uses for making one of these.
16. Simple Art â Take a pegboard and stretch different color rubber bands in various shapes until every peg has been used at least once. Fun, creative and simple.
17. Strap an Injured Finger â Use a rubber band to strap an injured finger to a firm stick or piece of cardboard until it can be properly casted.
18. Melt and Use as an Adhesive â Itâs not glue, but a melted rubber band does make a darn good adhesive.
19. A Distraction â Pull the famous rubber band gun trick and shoot a rubber band across the room. Try to hit something that makes a sound, or just catch your victimâs attention. As soon as they look the other way, make your move.Rubber Band Tie Dye
20. Tie-Dye â The style may have died in the seventies, but who really cares⦠a DIY tie-dye project can be a blast. If you have kids, itâs a cheap, creative way to entertain.
21. Prevent the Mixing Spoon from Sliding into the Bowl â Wrap a rubber band around the upper part of the spoonâs handle just above the point at which the spoon touches the rim of the bowl. Now the spoon canât slip and slide in.
22. Insulate Electrical Current â Rubber bands can act as insulators for low wattage electrical current. Wrap a rubber band around an exposed region of a wire (before the wire is live).
23. Design Fancy Easter Eggs â Wrap several rubber bands in different directions around the eggs before dunking them in the Easter egg dye. This will create interesting designs on the dyed eggs.
24. A Pencil Eraser â Fold a rubber band in half a few times and use it to erase pencil markings. It works surprisingly well.Rubber Band Easter Egg
25. Keep those Files IN the Manila Folder â Manila folders are a great tool for filing papers until you accidently drop a one. Since a manila folder is nothing more than a sleeve, the files will spill out everywhere. A rubber band can fix that problem in jiffy.
26. Kitty-proof or Puppy-proof Your Toilet Paper â Kitties and Puppies love to shred things. Toilet paper is one of their top 10 favorites. Wrap a rubber band around the roll of toilet paper to avoid the dangling temptation.
27. Grip that Jar Lid â Place a thick rubber band around the rim

What's the minimum amount of stuff our family needs for a day trip?
Busy Barbi
Snacks/clothes/ gear/ etc and how old r your kids?
Answer
It depends on where you're going and what's there. We usually plan on eating out if it's just a day trip (when we go to one of our timeshares/condos or camping for a week, we buy groceries and cook more often), but even so, I pack a water bottle for my two and four year old (and one for mom and dad), pre-portioned bags of dried fruit, goldfish, crackers, etc. for snacking, and fruits like apples and bananas that are washed and in ziplock bags with napkins packed inside (then I can hand the kids the bag as we're driving along, they can eat, use the napkin and zip up the trash/peels/core inside the bag so it doesn't end up everywhere in the car. I always have an extra outfit for each child (that includes shoes - you never know when they won't be able to resist a good mud puddle or fall in a stream, even in an urban area, there's always a chance of water running somewhere). For in the car entertainment, the kids both have books, magnadoodles, magnetic faces books/colorforms, and electronic games (Leapfrog Tag).
In my trunk at all times, I carry a pair of footie pajamas and a pair of crocs for each child (it can be a second outfit to go home in, as it was when we were hiking and my son attempted to jump a mud puddle and face planted instead, or sleepwear when we took someone up on an invitation to visit and stayed too late), a blanket, a first aid kit (I've loaned bandaids out to many a stressed mommy at the park, but I also include children's tylenol, hydrocortizone, triple antibiotic lotion, and benadryl for my little allergic one) and sunblock, extra water bottles and a box of wheat thins (never know when I have to run one more errand and the kids get grumpy because their lunch is delayed), baby wipes (for cleaning whatever), an empty garbage bag (you never know when you'll need to have something to put dirty clothes in/slide down hills on/ect.), bubbles and sand toys. Since I no longer pack a stroller in the trunk, I use a trunk organizer to keep all the kid stuff together and it still leaves half the trunk in my little Mazda 3 for things that I'm actually transporting.
