One of the fun parts of Back To School is NOT having to label everything. As the children get older, there is less that needs labeling (because they tend to take care of their stuff better), but when they are young and in school (or camp or day care, etc) EVERYTHING needs to be labeled. The problem is, there are so many different things that need to be labeled, and in different ways (fabric markers for clothing, Sharpies for plastic, zipper pulls for backpacks and jackets, etc) and well – if you have ever seen my handwriting, you would know that there is no guarantee that, even if the item is found, anyone would know to whom is belonged!
Lovable Labels has a Back to School Pack with over 165 different labels that you can customize so that none of your kids supplies, books, uniforms, shoes, etc will be lost. These stickers are dishwasher and microwave safe, waterproof, and UV resistant.
The Back to School Pack includes:
- 15 Sticker Labels
- 80 Slimline Labels
- 12 Shoe Labels
- 48 Press n’ Stick Clothing DOTS™
- 2 Mini-Metal Tags (two 4” silver ball chains incld)
- 12 Square Labels
Through September 30, 2012, you can take $5 off your $25 Lovable Labels purchase when you use the code BTS201221
Lovable Labels sent me a Back To School pack and I had them made with Elizabeth’s name on them and she couldn’t WAIT to put them to use. She already has the mini-metal tags on her backpack and started putting the clothing dots on her “most important clothes”. What is also nice is that the girls in her grade tend to buy the same styles of shoes (I can’t count how many times I went to help out in her classroom and saw 3 different girls wearing the exact same pair of Bella Ballerinas), so we will be using the shoe labels as soon as we buy her some new shoes for Back To School!

Full Disclosure: Lovable Labels gave me a set for review purposes along with another to give away.
I usually try to keep things in bins to help with organizations.

Keep track of their stuff–HA!! I can’t even keep track of my own head! But for daycare, I do label everything with a sharpie…but that needs redone regularly, esp with use and washings. As for home, I try to keep track of the diaper bag, keeping that stocked with the necessities for being out of the house. Baby dolls/monkeys stay in their beds, so that there is no problems at bedtime.
