I need to get some wristbands which we can use on the children when we go on trips, they only need to be plain but with the words

"If I am lost please contact (Tel No.)"

Does anyone know of any good suppliers for these

Many thanks and have a great day everyone (weekends nearly here :happy banana: )

I looked at these ones, they are very nice however we need ones that the kids cannot remove.

Thanks anyway

Could you use something like this and write on them yourself with a marker
http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/?ie=UTF8&keywords=paper+wristbands&tag=googhydr-21&index=aps&hvadid=7320346489&ref=pd_sl_2nadslelfl_b

or these are nicer and you can get them custom printed (scroll down):

You were right to avoid these, they are far too easy for children to remove.

Let us know when you've tested the ones you've bought, if they are any good.

I've got these from e-bay, they are the same sort of thing you get in theme parks. just add your own details to the band. Single use so I don't know how that works out compared to others but one size fits all and they come in a choice of colours :)

This is the seller I bought mine from, he sent the wrong colours first time but gave them me for free and sent the colours i wanted happily at no extra charge! No quibble at all. Bargain!:D

I've never had a child remove one I must say and I've had 1 - 8yrs olds wearing them.

Just because I am a cheapskate, and we do it at preshool you can.............

Make a luggale label, with info on, laminate it, hole punch it, and loop it through a belt loop, or t-shirt label, have it hanging outside so visible x

Obviously dont attach it to a coat, as this might be removed x

Another preschool up the road tie theses labels to their shoes x

I have these and they come in two sizes small size and a slightly larger one. I've never had any problem with these and my mindees are good at keeping them on.

They have a phone number & id number personal to you. They cost me £19 for initial outlay but have just cost me £3 to renew for the year.

They got a major thumbs up from ofsted when had my inspection:blush:
