![]() It's OK to wiggle while you work! Bouncy Bands help students release their extra energy, anxiety and stress by quietly bouncing their feet and stretching their legs while they work at their desk or chair. I found sitting with my feet on the Bouncy Bands released the pressure in my lower back. Bouncy Bands are for adults too! I had the pleasure of meeting Scott Ertl creator and founder of Bouncy Bands last week at EDexpo 2016. Scott is an elementary school counselor in Winston-Salem, North Carolina and he created Bouncy Bands to help students at his own school have a way to move when they worked so they wouldn't have to stay trapped at their desks for 5-6 hours a day. He wanted to help them be able to stretch their legs, bounce their feet and prop up their feet instead of having them dangle all day from their chair. Scott started sharing Bouncy Bands at conferences and presentations where he worked with educators on a variety of topics (Progress Cards, Parent-Child Retreats, Playshops, and Read and Ride). Then he decided to start making Bouncy Bands available to other Teachers and for home/office use. Bouncy Bands orders started coming from around the nation for individual students, classes, grade levels, and whole schools! After numerous requests to create a Bouncy Band that would work for chairs, he developed the latest version that keeps the support pipes securely attached to the chair legs. Scott gratefully shares his products with children and adults while promoting active learning with appropriate ways to release anxiety, energy, boredom, and frustration--without getting in trouble. Making learning fun for children. Teachers notice that students have improved performance on class work and tests since students can stay focused longer and they feel calmer -- without distracting others. Students love being able to move instead of having to sit still at their desk for 5 - 6 hours every day. Wiggle away with Bouncy Bands!

Jason is a Mechanic; Jason’s hands get dirty, greasy, dry and cracked from washing. Not any more … Jason is impressed with SCRUBBY Soap! You are all tired of hearing me go on and on about how great SCRUBBY Soap is … I have told you to use it in the Kitchen, on your stainless steel pots and pans, on your granite counter tops and flat top stoves. We know it cleans and conditions hands and paintbrushes, its all over social media. Artists love SCRUBBY Soap. So let’s share Jason’s story. Heidi brings SCRUBBY Soap home with her (after having lunch with Anna). Jason is her husband, and a mechanic. Jason gets really dirty, his hands get covered in grease and they are often black. He can’t get them clean. After working on a truck transmission all day long, below is what Jason's hand looked like. He used the Orange SCRUBBY Soap and said he was impressed … he would totally endorse the product and it didn't take long to clean his black greasy hands. See below for after SCRUBBY Soap. You all know that John likes SCRUBBY Soap (he loves Anna) … because he’s the one that does the clean up in our kitchen. He uses it for cleaning the broiling pan, pots and pans, and the dreaded storage containers from lunch. We use to wash all of our containers in the dishwasher, because that was the only way to get rid of the greasy film from a salad. But then we found SCRUBBY Soap; SCRUBBY cuts the grease and makes clean up so much easier. We run our dishwasher less often because of SCRUBBY Soap. Good for us, and good for the environment. I would love to hear and share your SCRUBBY Soap experience. Before: AFTER:
