Has anyone tried the stick-on name labels for kids' clothing? If you have, is there a particular brand that you like? I'm thinking about using them for some of Ali's clothes that we are going to loan out, but I was wondering if they stay on through repeated washings. They seem almost too good to be true!

I have never used the labels , but we used to just use a laundry marker,(or sharpie) and put our initials on the back of the sizing tag.

i had a stamp made with my son's name for when he went to sleep away camp. I stamped everything he took with him (including socks) and the stamps are still present years and many washings later.

It was one I ordered online. I googled "laundry stamp summer camp" and I just came up with the above site, but I'm not sure if this is the one I used. If you do that google search you will see a whole bunch of similar stamps.

I turned down a sample for review because we're homebound but now when I'm being offered samples I can't use I'm getting permission to give them to friends or families and let them do the review.
