We can't over extol the value of this simple prop for playing.  This simply designed large clip can be used for lots of things, but especially for building forts and hideouts with the play cloths and silks or blankets.  Really works well to keep your child's creations in place.  Still made by the same toymaker who designed it decades ago.  Includes two extra bands.  Ages 3+.  5" long.  Pine.  USA
