More than 12 million Americans have food allergies, according to The Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network -- including about 3 million children.
If your child is one of them, you know just how anxiety-provoking it can be to send her off to school, camp or even friends' houses for play dates.
Enter Allergy Alerts from Mabel's Labels -- durable, waterproof labels that are custom-printed with your child's name and a list of her allergies. Stick them on gear, such as lunch boxes, food containers, backpacks and travel bags, and rest a little easier knowing that the word is out there.
Available at Mabel's Labels for $18.50.
