Mine is one of the first words a kid learns, and they never forget it. In fact, as they get older, “mine” applies to every single thing they own. How is a kid supposed to keep their stuff safe? Personalize it.
Why Personalize
Names are important. Seeing your name in writing can create a feeling of happiness. Having someone know your name can bring even more joy. When your name is written on something you own, you can feel a true sense of ownership. Children, even more than adults, treasure that ownership.
Having an item personalized, assigns it permanently to the individual. No one other than the owner can claim the item as theirs. This is great for school children because no one is able to take their things and claim them as their own. It makes the object more important to the child as well. When an item is left behind accidentally, the owner can easily be found because of the personalization.
How to Personalize?
Personalizing an item can be as simple as writing a name on a label, or as elaborate as embroidering it onto a special item. Stickers, with a name printed on them, can be attached to many objects as well.
How an item is personalized can be as special as the name being applied to it. Should it be written in block letters or fancy script? What colors should be used and should it have a picture as well? These are all ways to personalize a name and fit it to the person it belongs to.
What Can Be Personalized?
Almost anything can be personalized from clothing to school supplies. Some common items kids enjoy having their name on are backpacks and lunch bags. There are companies that specialize in personalizing a variety of such items. One company is Cash’s Australia. Cash’s Australia offers personalized items such as backpacks, lunch bags, and even make woven labels to be sewn into clothing.
Personalized name tags can be applied to luggage and names can be stamped into pencils or pens. In fact, most everyday items can and often are personalized for adults as well as for children.
Who Can Personalize?
Of course, kids like to have their things personalized, but they are not the only ones. Adults like to put work logos on clothing and pens. They may also like personalized stationery. Luggage tags are used for identification and personalized water bottles can be used during exercise.
Pets are also often given personalized items. Dog tags and collars with names on them are common. Food bowls can have names on them as well. Anyone who wants to make sure their items can be easily identified, has a reason to personalize them.
Whether you are a kid, a parent or just someone who is a kid at heart, personalizing your items can be a fun thing to do. Add names and artwork to any item you want to claim, and have fun seeing your name in writing.
