SafetyTat Review and Giveway

Have you ever lost your child---even for a minute---in a public place? It can be a scary event. Fortunately, most of the time when kids get separated, they are quickly found. But those minutes can seem like hours. One mom, came up with a solution: SafetyTats. Here is her story:

The idea for SafetyTat temporary child ID tattoos was born of necessity one weekend at an amusement park. On Labor Day Weekend, Baltimore Mom, Michele Welsh and her husband, there with their three small children, felt out-numbered. To stave her panic, she quickly wrote her mobile phone number on each of their arms with a ballpoint pen. As she did this, she thoughtfully explained to each of them the importance of staying close to Mommy and Daddy. She also told them that if they were separated that the number on their arm was a way to reconnect with them.

Throughout the day of fun, Michele had to rewrite the number several times as it smeared or washed off. Several parents in the park stopped her to ask if that was her number on the kids' arms. Each time, they loved the idea.

The day was a success and the idea for SafetyTat temporary child id tattoos was born.

SafetyTat sent me a 4-pack of Quick Stick Write-Ons. It included 4 tattoos (that were almost as as easy to put on a band-aid!); 4 alcohol wipes (to clean the area); and a small permanent marker.

Munchy and Crunchy were happy to assist me!

I cleaned the area (upper shoulder is where we chose to apply the SafetyTat) with the included alcohol wipe. (Crunchy said, "It smells like I am going to get a shot!" I assured it was just to clean the skin!)

Next I peeled the back off and pressed the Tat to the skin and held firmly. After 20 seconds, I remove the second backing (that is split like a band-aid). Then I wrote my mobile number on Munchie's and "Seizure meds" on Crunchy's. (I took the picture before I wrote my complete number.)
