It ended up being a little pricey (we ordered a few extra sheets) but we have labeled every single thing that goes to day care and we always get our stuff back, even if they look exactly the same as the other kids' stuff. The clothes and containers have all been washed multiple times and the stickers are still stuck. In fact, we have hand-me-downs from a friend and those labels (also from NameBubbles) are still in place too after years of use! And almost as important as how great they work is how cute they look! We ordered the Narwahls and they always make me smile.
