I've tried tons of cup labels and they all come off when washed. Have been using these labels for about month on both DD's water bottles and the DCK's cups. All are washed daily in the dishwasher and the labels still look brand new. They are fantastic!

Nice! Right now I don’t label. Each child has an assigned color that matches their cubby.

My current issue is chewed up or dishwasher melted sippy lids. Have you tried those new universal lids?

I use some of the enrollment fee to buy Orbit Labels from Inchbug. I send 2 home to the parents and keep 2 here for bottles/cups. I leave them on in the dishwasher and have never had a problem with them.

I have not, but I have heard great things about them!

Right now I have my younger ones using the take and toss cups and ikea open top cups and both have held up well in the dishwasher.

We used Mabel's Labels at my kid's school. They worked well for us, but in my day care, we use these, with a different color for each kid. If you have more than six kids per day, though, it wouldn't work!

I use my dymo label maker with plastic labels. The labels have been on plastic and metal
items over two years (in dishwasher and handwashing)

We use rubber bracelets, each kid has a color and the chart is hanging on the wall. 8 kids, 8 colors, works pretty well. After awile you learn there colors too. Makes it so much eaiser on the kitchen (center) when they dont have to worry about labels. Even better is the fact we have bold colors and the other infant room has pastels so they dont have to hear "You brought it to the wrong room" 200 times a day
