Why chameleons shed?

I know this might be a stupid question but I know chameleons are very unique creatures. I was just wondering if it had anything to do with the colors they change.
 
Nope,

Their skin does not grow with them so just like a snake they shed as they grow so their skin does not get to tight.

Funny, I was just talking to my daughter and said it would be cool if they were like a jaw breaker and changed color with each shed LOL.
