Labels4Kids: Because Kids Lose Stuff
With four children, aged four, five, six and fourteen, I’m sure you can imagine that we have a lot of stuff. Our porch is piled high with shoes, our cloak cupboard bursting with coats, and each of their wardrobes crammed with enough clothes to open our own shop! For that reason, and even more so when those shoes, coats and clothes leave the house, I have a huge need for labels.
Recently I was introduced to Labels4Kids who give parents and carers peace of mind over their belongings with clothing labels, stick on name labels, snappy tags, school labels, name stickers and personalised gifts for the whole family. With a tag line we can all relate to – because kids lose stuff – I loved their huge range of labels and accessories, in funky colours with personalised logos.
Trading since 2004, Labels4Kids were chosen by John Lewis Partnership to be their school name label supplier and are four times winner of the Online Retail Awards. I’ll be honest, knowing that each of their labels have been tested to stay on in washing machines, tumble dryers, microwaves and dishwashers, I had high expectations from Labels4Kids.
It couldn’t be easier to order from the website, with each label pack having a wide range of colours to choose from and 74 fun and appealing icons. From dinosaurs to unicorns, rocket ships to teddy bears, I love that, even for children who are yet to identify their own name, each child can identify their chosen symbol to locate their clothes and accessories.
Our labels arrived super fast and I was so impressed with the bright colours and various designs. We received a Stick on clothing labels pack for each of the children which are priced at £24.99 and include –
- 26 kids shoe labels (for 13 pairs of shoes) with transparent covers to protect labels against perspiration.
- 26 small name labels for lunch boxes, water bottles or any hard surfaces. Dishwasher and microwafe safe.
- 30 stick on clothing labels for clothes. The easiest way to label clothes, no ironing or sewing necessary!
- 2 bag tags for school bags.
The labels are so easy to stick on clothes, shoes and hard surfaces, and once on they feel very secure. Each label is tested for 30 washes at 40 °C and although I am yet to wash each item of clothing 30 times, I can’t see them budging!
The great thing is that if you do have any issues with your items, Labels4Kids offer a 100% money back guarantee and during normal working hours there will always be a friendly voice on the telephone or live chat facility to help you out.
The girls are really pleased that all of their clothes now have new labels on so there is no arguing over shoes or coats each morning, and for me it is so much easier to sort their clothes into separate piles for ironing, despite them wearing identical clothing!
And with Harry starting school this September I am confident that not only are his clothes fully labelled, but his water bottle, lunch box and school bag all labelled too with easy to read labels that he can’t wait to show off!
We are so impressed with Labels4Kids and definitely recommend them to everyone preparing to label their children’s clothes for the new school year. To buy your own labels head on over www.labels4kids.com.

Aren’t these labels fabulous! We love them – they are so incredibly useful too.
I am always amazed by the amount of parents at my children’s school who don’t label their children’s stuff. Labels like this are so easy to order and last so well, plus I love the different designs. Or even if people don’t want to buy labels, then at least write their name on. There is a huge box of ‘lost’ jumpers and cardigans, drinks bottles etc at our school. Those things are not cheap either! Investing in good labels will save money in the long run!
These look like great labels. I get through loads for my children as they come off sometimes. It’s great you can have a design on them too.
I remember the sew in labels we had when I was a kid and they’d be so uncomfortable on tshirts and polos as they’d rub x
Can never have enough labels I always say! Kids have something on minute and it’s gone the next so the more you can do the better!
I remember my son’s clothing always going missing at school. These labels look great and seem to last a long time
This is a very good idea. I renember when my mum used to label all of my stuff
I don’t know how I’d get by without labels and these ones look great! In fact I need to stock up on school labels for the coming year.
Labels are such a great idea! Honestly, my kids are constantly losing their clothes. I should use these labels!
I love these labels. They are so handy. I use them a lot for my kids stuff.
Working in a school, it drives me insane the amount of stuff that isn’t labelled and then trying to re-home it with its owner is a nightmare
I’ve used these labels! (I reviewed them on my blog a few years ago.) I love them! I am still using them when I send my kids to summer camps. They work so great! So much better than a magic marker!
These are great, and it’s amazing to me that you can wash the clothing labels and they stay put. I wish I had this as a solution when my kids were young, it’s totally going in my when I’m a grandma file.
LOL this article could have been titled labels for husbands because they lose stuff as well! Such a great idea, I’ll look into doing this for my son’s belongings (especially if he’ll be taking after his father in the losing things department).
These look like great labels. I like how you get a selection of colours. I use to have to try and write my kid’s names in theirs when they were little.
We entered the world of labelling last year and its a must. My son is generally good at keeping track of his things but you never know. These sound like great labels for multipurpose uses too!
Those are the cutest labels EVER. And with summer camp going on, we definitely need labels. Two kids + three camps = losing things!
I love their catch phrase “because kids lose stuff” definitely made me laugh, thinking of all the stuff our kids have lost. I’d rather laugh than cry about it. I would definitely use this product, especially with how durable it is.
Labeling is so important, especially when having so much stuff and it can get mixed up with others. This is such a cute idea, I’m sure the kids will love it.
I am definitely ordering some labels in a couple of years! As soon as she’s in school I am labeling everything!
Love this label idea. Super cute designs too.
Oh my gosh, these are adorable! I love these. They are wonderful for kids (and parents!) to keep stuff together.
Haha yes, so true, there’s always one of something missing. those labels are so cute and helps keep track of kids stuff.
Kid’s almost lose something every now and then or simply misplaced them. That’s why labeling is a great idea and the designs are cute too.
I love these labels. When I have kids I definitely would make a bunch of labels for them!
This is a great idea for those with toddlers, I will have to purchase in the future.
Ooh, I’ll have to pick some of these up for Oscar next term as he’s lost more pairs of plimsolls this year than a little!

I love these labels. I would label everything if I could. It makes life so much easier.
Aww, what a cute set of labels! These would be so handy for Pip 🙂
I have these for my kids. They are perfect for sippy cups too with my little one. Definitely keep me organized as well.
This is definitely great for families, having labels would make everything so much easier and organising would be so much more attainable. I wish I had this growing up, life would be easier.
I love these labels and think the fact they can be personalised with an animal or logo is great. Good price too as it sounds like you get a lot!
Always label everything when you have kids! I’ve always used Sharpies, but these labels make it a lot easier, more so when others can’t read your handwriting.

These are so cute, I need to think about labels for next year
