Emily Press Label Packs – Perfect for Camp & School (Review & Giveaway)

I think as soon as kids grow old enough to participate in programs outside the home, moms realize the true benefit of labeling. Lots and lots of labeling. But, not all labels are created equal. Emily Press Labels are designed with moms and tots in mind and offer stylish, durable labels that are perfect for camps, school and general OCD-ness.

About Emily Press Labels

After a futile search to find durable yet stylish labels for her nieces and nephews, Maureen set out to design her own labels that would be fun and fashionable as well as stay stuck on their belongings. With her previous experience working for Robeez Footwear, she jumped at the opportunity to start her own creative business with kids and big kids in mind. That’s when Emily Press Labels was born.

Trendy color palettes, playful characters and fashionable designs are the essence of Emily Press Labels. The collections of stylish, functional and durable sticky labels speaks to modern kids, hip youths and savvy grown-ups.

Kids Camp Label Pack

We are moving in the middle of the summer, but both before and after the move my son will attend some fun new schools. First and staring this week(!), my little guy will go to Zoo Camp. He’s beyond thrilled, of course, and we have the ideal labels to make sure he comes home with everything I pack in his bag in the morning. The Emily Press Camp Labels pack is up to the task. The pack contains 129 labels in FIVE different shapes that are appropriate for everything your child can possibly need.

• Popular dishwasher safe labels for water bottles & food containers
• Slim dishwasher safe labels for toiletries & flashlights
• Tag-a-Tag™ peel & stick labels for clothing & linens
• Shoe labels for hiking boots, sneakers & water shoes
• Large waterproof labels for sleeping bags & backpacks

I personalized the Jungle Scene and the process is super simple. You enter your child’s name, color choice if applicable, pick an icon and then preview the design. When the finished product arrived I was surprised by the cool packaging. (see below) It’s so clever and keeps the labels in good condition. The quality of the labels is great – they’re thick and look very cute. I think my favorite thing, though, is that each page describes the labels on that sheet and what they’re best suited for.

I’ve labeled up a bunch of my son’s goodies so he’s prepared for camp this week. My favorite labels are the Shoe Labels. Aren’t they clever? (I distorted the photo a little bit but so rest assured the printed labels are clear and easy to read.)

Another great option for the summer, particularly for sleepaway camp for older kids and day care for younger tots, is the new Emily Press Clothing Labels. The Clothing Pack has an assortment of laundry safe labels – including iron-ons, my favorite Shoe Labels and peel and stick Tag-a-Tag labels.

To Buy or Not to Buy

To Buy… Emily Press labels are very high quality – the difference is obvious as soon as you feel them. There’s a nice variety to choose from and the labels are easily customized. And, really, you can’t beat the cool packs that contain multiple shapes and sizes for different uses.

Or Not to Buy… The Camp Set is best suited for sleepaway camp but I have no doubt we’ll use all the labels before the year is out.

Shop! The Emily Press Camp Labels pack is $47.95. If you prefer one particular shape or size, check out the Sticky Label options.
