    Default do you use hi vis tops and wrists bands in summer

    hi guys..
    was just having a look on web to buy some ID wrist bands and am now thinking
    I should ask first where everyone else gets theirs..

    also I wondered if you guys use hi-vis vests or get tshirts for your childmindees
    which are all same colour..

    would really appreciate some thoughts..xx hope you are all keeping cool

    I use hi vis vests from Ikea and have just asked Carole to do me some hats so I can easily spot them without having them next to me.

    I use the NCMA wristbands if we are going to be anywhere crowded, i did see some children in lovely teeshirts with just a mob no on the back, that seems a good idea.

    the wristbands I use are from www.familysafeplus.co.uk
    they come in 2 different thicknesses and are reusable but slighly more expensive than NCMA last time I looked at pricing.

    I use hi-vis vests for my younger children not my over 8's as they gave feedback stating they didnt wish to wear them. again they came from ikea summin like £1.25 each but may have gone up a little now as bought mine a couple of years ago.
    Busy losing the will to live mwuahahahaha!

    I'm after some embroidered hats. I didn't think Carole did them but from what Deb has said she may have started.
