There have been a few articles in newspapers in the last few weeks regarding the current rainbow loom trend and several papers seem to imply that it's popularity has soared as a result of the Duchess of Cambridge who was seen wearing one given to her by a child. Several other celebrities have been sporting loom band brackets too apparently.
My children have only a vague idea who the Duchess of Cambridge is and she certainly isn't responsible for their obsession with this. Why do the media need to make out that celebrities are responsible for everything? Can't we just let kids enjoy a simple craft/ toy these days just because it's fun rather than it being a celeb led trend or AIBU?
