Mabel's Labels

If you have children in school, daycare, or dance class, I'm sure you've written your child's name in permanent marker on countless pairs of shoes, coats, sippy cups, bottles, and backpacks. Is there a better and cuter way to claim your child's things as their own?

Yes, I found a great solution: Mabel's Labels. They make labels "for the stuff kids lose!"

And they are truly personalized. Not only do the labels have your child's name, but you also get to choose an icon and color.

I got the lilac ballerina shoe labels for my daughter's dance shoes. They are not only cute, but my 3-year-old daughter is able to quickly pick out her shoes from the pile of lookalikes in the studio.

Not only does Mabel's Labels help keep track of your children's belongings, but they also have a line of stationary and household labels, as well as allergy alert labels. Next time you reach for that marker, get Mabel's Labels instead.
