Labeling Possessions

Sometimes I just really need a way to mark bags for each child, but I don’t want to write on the item with a permanent marker. Problem solved… I came across a package of three of these key/luggage tags at the key kiosk for less than $2 (if I remember correctly), and they are wonderful for attaching to zippers on bags, backpacks, lunchboxes, etc. With different colors, it’s easier to tell which whose is whose at a glance. Almost a decade later, we are still using them! You can find a pack of 40 in 9 assorted colors for about $6 on Amazon.

So, I found this black Document Storage Box, and I just couldn’t pass it up. It’s the perfect size, and we chose to personalize it and give it to him as a gift.
