When Laura Agelopoulos discovered her severely allergic son drinking out of another kid’s sippy cup, she set out to find labels that wouldn’t wash off and would look good. When her search failed, she, along with partner Christine Hopkinson, decided to launch LabelYourStuff.

Packing tips from LabelYourStuff:
- Work together: Label and pack all items going to camp with your children so they can see what’s theirs.
- Label everything:Toothbrushes, cameras, prescription medicine, sporting equipment, shampoo bottles, flashlights, jackets, rubber boots, running shoes, hats, towels, sunscreen, backpacks, swimming goggles, T-shirts, bug repellent, water bottles, asthma inhalers…
- Teach them the value of their stuff: Let your child know that their property is valuable and that there are consequences to not taking care of it. In these tough economic times, it’s tougher to afford replacement items. Labeling their stuff will help them find and identify their items, and minimize your re-buy.
