With Jack soon to start nursery, we know that we will have to start labeling his stuff. After all, you can’t expect a three year old to remember which one is his if other children have the same. Now that he is able to read his name, labeling his items will make it easier for both him and nursery staff to distinguish what is his. To help us in this process, we were kindly sent some stick on and iron on personalised name labels from the people at Stuck On You.
We were sent the Little Kid’s Value Pack to review. Each pack comes with an iron on sleeve of labels and a stick on one. I’ve had to keep these hidden from Jack otherwise I would find the stick on ones absolutely everywhere!
We chose the construction design with his full name. There are a number of different designs to choose from but with Jack recently loving his trucks and car toys, construction seemed like the way to go for these. We have been busy preparing a number of different items for nursery including clothes, rucksacks and the like.
The iron on pack are easy to apply – simply place face up on the fabric so that the text is showing, cover with supplied parchment paper and iron over with a dry iron on a setting between medium and hot for 10 seconds. Repeat until the label is firmly applied and allow to cool before use. Of course, the stickers are even easier, just peel off and stick on!
We are quite impressed with these labels – especially as the packs come with both iron on labels and stickers meaning that you can use different labels for different items – iron on obviously are great for clothing whereas stickers are better for books etc. There are such a wide variety of designs available and different sized packs too – whilst we chose the little kid’s pack, there are junior packs available too.
I will definitely be considering picking up more of these in the future – after all, they are definitely more attractive than the labels I had sewn in/stuck in to my clothes when I was younger! These currently retail at £13.99 and are definitely worth every penny.
