Back to school - $100 Stuck on you { Giveaway }

There has been much excitement in the air moving into Year 2 (their 3rd school yr in NSW).

Taken this morning - hard to get him to smile for camera when I ask him to.
All 4 twin sets in our school were separated this year. My twins had the same teacher for kindy and yr1 , now they have two new teachers and are in different classes, with lots of different kids - I am glad they have settled in well because I'm off to Sydney Friday for Paddling and then staying for my surgery next week.

Mum will be taking over the reins and I feel very blessed she can do this, so my husband can be with me. I am sure she will 'whip them' into shape without needing a whip ;).

'Stuck on you' understand the importance of finding quality items for children that withstand the rigorous wear our kids throw at them and help misplaced items find their way back. Our original matching pencil cases [used for home readers] are still in excellent condition after 18 months usage.

The lid is a ruler too.

This year the boys were so excited to choose the wooden pencil boxes and we got new Large pocket pencil cases in red and blue for their classroom stationery items.


Homework time is now routine and more organised with a Homework Pencil box from Stuck on You® .There are always pencils on hand and when the boys are finished , they have an awesome box to store their pencils neatly...no more fighting - HE took my pencil & I used it first yesterday &it's got my germs on it !


Last year we used high quality personalised kids backpacks from Stuck on You .

Sam has a new Stuck on you bag- with multiple pockets and 4 separate zipped up areas plus 'net' drink pocket and a side zip pocket. [Joel is using the second of new identical bags given to both boys last year because it was what he wanted- and to be different to Sam]

Over the years I've learned how valuable multiple pockets are.They can save a lot of stress and help stop kids dumping the contents of the bag on the floor searching for something.

They both wanted Superhero
My boys try to keep notes for me or notes for their teacher in the front pockets ; lunch bags in wide back section and other gear / homework book/folders etc in the middle pockets. Easier said than done un-crumpled notes are rare .

Stuck On You kids backpacks are made from durable poly canvas and are fully lined. As are the pencil cases.I love the easy to use website and that you can preview how the bag /design will look with your children !

There is a choice of three colours (Navy, Pink and Red) and lots of image choices - they suit any child's interest...except for Joel who really wanted a Green backpack.

So nothing gets left behind at school and the poor teacher knows which identical lunchboxes belong to Tom, Dick and Harry and it magically finds it's way back to your child. Stuck on you packs are very generous , so we still had plenty of labels


Stuck on you's  range has expanded incredibly over the years if you haven't checked their website lately- go do it now ...I'll wait. Personalise it all to match as well ...pencil cases,lunchboxes and school bags.

As well as labels you can order personalized clothes , puzzles , sports & library bags, rolling wheelie bags, home essentials and even personalised party items.

My favourite product ideas are
  • Backpack
  • Lunch Pack (drink bottle and/or lunchbox) 
  • Value Pack – with combo of labels and a Bag Tag
  • Stationery – Homework pencils Tools for School (Large Pencil Case, eraser, scissors, pens, pencils, markers all personalised)
When you have finished browsing come back and tell me which Stuck on you back pack , Value Pack or item you would like to purchase and why or

I'd actually love a navy lunchbox with a cupcake design for myself. Great size & design for my purpose. Although the cupcake design might be a dead giveaway that I have my private stash of goodies secreted away inside.
We love the Stuck on You quality so much that we purchased a special school bag for our special girl starting her first ever day of School. Excitedly our Miss6 began Kindgergarten with her Stuck on You backpack - matching colours with her uniform and complete with a gorgeous flower icon and her name. It won't be easy to loose this bag in a crowd. (Uploaded photo to Stuck on You 5..2.14 - also left a copy of the photo on your competition facebook post)
Such beautiful stationery, labels and bags. I love that the lid of the pencil case can also be used as a ruler!

hi Lizzy
you won a $50 voucher - can you please email me - I only need your email address.
I love stuck on you. We just got a delivery yesterday for a review, and Ava was beside herself!! They have so much awesome stuff :)

I would LOVE to buy a 0-5 value pack BECAUSE with two boys who are quite close in age and size, NO ONE, except me knows how to dress them in their right shoes or shirts or shorts! My mum, bless her cotton socks, often tries to put my 4yo in 2yo clothes and vice versa, just because they are 'boy' clothes. She only had girls, 3 of them, and isn't used to boy stuff, SO labels for ONE of them would mean there would be less drama all around, it would also mean one of my boys could start to read/recognise their name better!!! As for my hubby I reckon he just plays dumb so I have to dress the kids, funny that.

Hello Em, I've got a $50 voucher code for you - can you email me with your email address asap .
Sock Labels to stop the in family squabbling! And I don't men just between the kids, I mean with hubby and me too......we're forever wearing each others socks, him stretching mine out much to my horror!
Lunch Pack, no more confusing who's is who's or whinging I gave the wrong lunch to the wrong child or even husband (yes he's been known to race out the door in the morning with one of the kids lunches, not his own).
I really want a stuck on you backpack for poppy it's on my wish list.

Ok to dream I'd order a pink backpack with a pony and Poppy in the cocoa script and I'd order labels for her food containers. She'd feel so special heading off to kinder with it.

I want any pack that has the SHOE labels stickers in them! Words can not describe the chaos at pick up time with 4/5 years olds trying to work out which shoes are theirs!!
My recent post Week One – 2014
I need a brand new family pack,
our labels did not last,
we plastered them on everything,
and they were gone so fast!

with 4 kids that's not that hard to do,
there's an awful lot to label,
but I'd rather items come back home,
than to someones else's table!

We've used these labels for many years,
for us they're tried and true,
that's why all our back to school gear,
is wearing stuck on you!

{ I will put a pic up on you Facebook page on Monday morning of my 4 kidlets with their back to school stuck on you items!}
Tools 4 Schools - what's mine is mine, what's yours is yours,
funky stationary labelled by name would prevent a mix-up furore!

I would get personalized drink bottle for my little one. He would be excited and proud of having his very own drink bottle and stop grabbing ours by accident.

The 0-5 pack would be perfect for my nearly-3-year-old, covers all the main things I need to label for him!
Recently we have bought a "Stuck on you" school bag for my son and he is totally in love with it. I would love to buy a LUNCH PACK for him because he will be very happy to have a lunchbox and water bottle with his name on it.
Moreover I would love to buy a KIDS DESIGNER VALUE PACK to keep all his school items safe with name labels on them.

I have shared a picture of my son with his " Stuck on you " bag on instagram with hashtags #backtoschool and #stuckonyoukids

The family pack is just what I need, I learnt the hard way how unlabelled items can so easily go missing and never be seen again, a brand new school jumper gone less than one week into the new school year.
The back packs look amazingly spacious. I really do like the pencil case which is a ruler too. I remember having a pencil case when younger that when you pressed different buttons different sections would pop out too. It reminded me of that. Thanks for sharing.
