Mabel's Labels

The most sustainable items are the ones you keep, but it can be particularly hard to hang onto kids' stuff. Items like lunch boxes and water bottles are easily forgotten at school, dance lessons, and friends' houses. To solve this problem in her own life, Leslie Garrett, Bluedot’s Editorial Director and former Today’s Parent editor, turned to Mabel’s Labels. “As a parent, Mabel’s has saved me a ton of money — especially on water bottles and lunch containers. Those labels stick to anything and they stay stuck.” Mabel’s guarantees its labels will withstand the laundry, dishwasher, microwave, and even sweaty teen athletes. They make labels for just about everything: socks, shoes, rulers, pens, backpacks, calculators, food containers, pacifiers, bottles, soccer balls, tennis rackets, and more. A ton of design options means that all kids can have labels that they love.
