I was recently offered the chance to do a Back-to-School giveaway from Lovable Labels. At first, I thought it didn’t really apply to me since I only have a not-even-two year old, and he’s not in school yet. But then I remembered – if we ever finally end up moving into our new house, starting daycare is one of the first things on the agenda. And, from what my moms friends tell me, most daycares require you to label everything you send.
So, actually, this review/giveaway was timed just perfectly for us! (Looks like we’ll be moving in about a week, so “school,” here we come!)
There were so many really cute design packages to choose from, but we settled on the Movin’ and Groovin’ Back-to-School pack, which included:
- 15 regular sticker labels
- 80 Slimline sticker lables
- 48 Press ‘n Stick Clothing DOTS
- 12 shoe labels
- 2 mini-metal tags (4″ silver ball chains included)
- 12 square labels
Wow! That’s a LOT of labels! But then, kids have a lot of stuff, right?
Here’s where a few of ours have ended up…
I’m saving the bag tags for our new Skip Hop lunchbag and backpack (but they haven’t arrived in the mail yet…and they are a surprise!) Until then, I’m just sticking the other ones on everything I can find in our house. 
Why I am really digging these labels:
- They’re SO much cuter than a name scrawled in Sharpie.
- They’re not just stickers. They are really well-made, durable stickers that can stand up to whatever your kids throw at ‘em.
- They come in a variety of shapes and designs, so they fit perfectly wherever you need them.
- They have adorable graphics on them, so the little ones are excited to use them, too.
- They are waterproof and dishwasher, laundry, microwave and sunscreen safe. No peeling and falling off!
- There’s no two ways about it: Kids lose stuff. I, for one, don’t want to be replacing things all the time! (Especially those things I purchased after lots of thought and research.) With Lovable Labels, I won’t have to!
Win it!

Hi!!
Thank you so much for posting your review on our Back to School Packs! I just love the pictures because it shows how our labels can be used! Thanks again! Hope you have a great weekend.
My best back to school tip is make sure you have everyting gathered up and set in a specific place the day before school starts that way even though its super crazy you can quickly grab the must haves and be out the door
I really like the Slim Sticker Labels

Not sure I have a good back-to-school tip. My tip is HOMESCHOOL them, LOL! ;-D
My best back to school tip is to start your kids on a morning routine before the first day of school! And lay everything out the night before to make your mornings easier!
I love the Slimline labels. I use them on everything!

My best Back to School tip – is to try to reuse items or purchase items on sale at the end of the last season.

I homeschool, but my tip is to stay organized! A good tip whether you homeschool or not… I hope!
I think my best back-to-school tip is to buy QUALITY school supplies.
I am planning on teaching within a few short years, and remember my mom not being able to buy quality school supplies. I don’t mind Roseart crayons or whatever- but Crayola brands will hold up to pencils bags and boxes so much better. That’s my tip!

My favorite product is the shoe labels! Shoes are a big item to be “taken” from lockers so they would come in handy! Or- if you only have a couple pairs those labels can be used as labels for anything really…

My best back to school tip is for the Mamas! Read “The Kissing Hand” to your babies before the first day and then leave them a kiss in their hand to remember you throughout the day. Trust me, it’s always harder on the parents! <3
Attach a picture keychain to your child’s backpack. It helps w/the homesickness.
I love the shoe labels, because writing a legible name in a shoe is near impossible.
