I recalled, these were called loom bands. my students making them. I did not show my students' face.
Recently I saw children making them.
Parents are
being warned of a cancer-scare involving fake accessories for loom bands
after tests revealed some imported batches were laced with deadly
levels of chemicals.
Safety
officials have issued the stark message after intercepting rogue
consignments of the bands and plastic trinkets sold with them which were
headed for British shelves from the Far East.
Scientists
carried out rigorous tests on several loom band 'charms', accessories
attached to necklaces and bracelets made from the colourful elastic
bands, and each one was found to have dangerous levels of phthalates in
them.

Makes it so hard to buy children gits when countries have no regulations...that will be our country soon.
Why are those articles not tested beforehand?
