Recently I was asked by Stuck On You to pick some items to review and giveaway. In this house, there seems to be constant arguments over towels and drink bottles, so I decided to get a personalised towel and drink bottle each. My daughters selected their own images, so one went with a fairy and mermaid, the other with an elephant.
When they arrived my daughters were so excited and I am happy with the quality. The drink bottles are stainless steel, which is something I had been planning on buying for ages, so it was nice to be able to get personalised ones. My daughter managed to leave her drink bottle at school, right on the last day of term, so the arrival of these ones from Stuck On You is perfect.
Having my daughter start preschool this year has introduced me to the need to label everything. I am lucky it is a small preschool and the teachers are great. Lost property is put out pretty much every day and all the mums know who owns what for the most part, so there are not issues. Of course, next year at ‘big school’ it will be a different story because things can be left in the playground and never found.
Stuck on you not only does personalised products like towels, hairbrushes and drink bottles, but also labels you can stick on anything and everything.
Since we picked a towel and drink bottle, that is what I am giving away today – someone will win their own personalised towel and stainless steel drink bottle.

My son is notorious for losing items at school, personalised items would make this a little easier to prevent.

My husband is the worse believe it or not, takes dishes, plates, containers, tuperware etc to work and they get lost in the cupboards there, so I think I need to label everything that goes to work in the hope that it will come home again!
I just wrote a list last night of what Josh has lost at daycare, it’s all items of clothing because I actually labelled the non fabric things. I just haven’t got around to ironing on labels to his clothes plus he keeps growing out of them!
I’d label the toilet seat “Put me down, man!!”
Then maybe, just maybe, hubby would get the message!!
Seriously though, my children’s socks could do with labeling; (iron-on labels of course) – three daughters close in age makes it hard to differentiate in Mount Foldmore!

Kindergarten kids all love their new things for schoil but they have SO MUCH to do everyday that they tend to forget to look after things – labeling is crucial in order for them to see their things again!
I label things because it costs money to replace them, if they are clearly named there is a reasonable chance you will get them back.
My son has started kinder this year and i would love to label all his kinder items – bag, hat,bottle ,jacket,lunch box and umbrella as he has lost couple of items last term as they were not labelled properly…
I label everything to help keep my family of four running smoothly. Everyone can find what they need – it’s peaceful to be organised.
This would solve all that lost tupperware that must be lurking at my hubby’s workplace.

I am a labeling maniac! Just thinking I need to label my children’s water spray cleaning bottles that we use when they are ‘helping’ mummy so they don’t get confused with mine or fight over their own. Hubby is forever losing things at work, rocket ship labels perhaps…?
30 little 5 year olds are in my daughters dance class
so things like drink bottles get lost pretty fast
I’d label the bottle with her name
so no one else had a bottle the same
then it’d always come back to her
and non one would mistake it for theirs which I’d prefer.
I have four kids, three are boys who are always getting gifts that are the same style or very similar. And you what that causes, “that’s mine” no “that’s mine” and that can go on for hours! So hence labels could essentially save what is left of my sanity!
with 7 kids in my house,I would love everything labelled because they are always fighting over who’s toy,clothing or food they have.Drives me crazy
My hubby wants me to label the shelves in the fridge. he also wants a white board on the outside of the door with what is on each shelf. (like I have time for that!) he says he can never find anything. Typical male!
We’ve just moved into a new office (in a shed in the back yard!) and our intention is to have no clutter, a place for everything, everything in it’s place.
Labeling will go a long way towards being organised.
I am the most forgetful Mummy ever and always leaving behind my daughter’s lunchbox/drink container/hat at kinder! These would be perfect for us!
These would be ideal to put my childrens names on everything they take to school.
So far this year they have lost 3 drink bottles and 2 lunchboxes!
My son starts preschool next year so I’ll need to start ordering labels etc soon
I’d label all my daughter’s belongings, because being the youngest she inherits all the hand-me-downs from older & extended family members. If everything was labeled they would be HERS!!
Do they do labelling for husbands? He asked me to get a tool the other day and I walked into the workshop and there in a bucket was all the tools – how am I suppose to find a ball peen hammer?
My daughter needs labels for kindy

I see labelling my children’s school items is number one,
as buying extra uniform and belongings is pricey and not fun.
It also helps my children take pride in their stuff,
even at a young age they can find it quickly and easily enough.
Four bickering girls
One Husband without any clues
Everything gets named
Even the shoes.
Kids losing things? MEH.. Its the HUSBAND in this house.. Lunch boxes, drink bottles, car keys, wallet, sunglasses, phone… I need to put a label on him that says.. “Put it all in the same spot Darling” or maybe “Im not your mother” lmao
Have a good weekend everyone
