What is arm.ID.illo bandz?
The newest, must-have accessory for kids, the arm.ID.illo bandz™ is a fashionable, adjustable bright orange bracelet. Made of waterproof, durable, eco-friendly rubber, the band is designed with a series of holes punched through the center all the way down length of the band. The holes are meant to hold round buttons (called pupz™) that are pre-printed with the numbers 0 through 9 on them. The idea is for parents to use the pupz™ to punch in the best contact number for the child and secure the bracelet to their child’s wrist by snapping the large white logo button located at one end of the bracelet into the any hole on the band. It’s that easy. No matter where your child goes, or who he/she is with, they are only a phone call away should they get separated from their guardian.

Why is it so important that my child wear an ID bracelet?
Research has shown that over 90% of families experience a lost child incident at some point, which means 7 out of 10 kids get lost at least once. In fact, over 2000 kids get lost every day – they get on the wrong school bus, they get off at the wrong stop, they wait in the wrong place to be picked up after an activity like a music lesson or they just wander off led by their curiosity – and these numbers are based on everyday life. Add the fact that today’s parents are exposing their children to art, culture, education and sports more than ever. They take their children everywhere with them these days – concerts, music & art festivals, museums, etc. They even take them on more trips, bringing them to airports, on cruise ships and to family resorts. Unfortunately, all these activities create more opportunities for a child to get lost. No parent means to lose a child, it just happens sometimes. Knowing your child is wearing an arm.ID.illo bandz™ can make whoever is caring for your child feel more secure, and help your child feel more confident when out with you or others in crowds and public places.

How does it work?
Using the numbers provided in the package, you put your cell phone number onto the band. You put the bracelet on your child. If your child gets lost your cell phone number is on them. they can ask an adult for help. Using their own cell phone, the adult can call you to let you know they have found your child, and to help you reunite with your child.

What happens if I'm out and my child gets lost?
If they are wearing the bracelet, your cell number is on them. Hopefully, you have told or reminded your child that your cell phone number can be found on their bracelet. Your child can simply ask and adult to call you and let you know where they are.

What if I am not the person who is taking my child to the amusement park? Do I have to buy another bracelet for each adult that my child might go out with?
