Question Plastic bracelets with lost child info?

I thought I remembered seeing something on the boards awhile back about a website where you can order plastic bracelets customized with a cell phone number in case your kids get lost. I've seen the "who's shoes" id, but I'm thinking that the plastic bracelet would be better, especially at the water parks where they won't be wearing shoes. That's the primary place that I'm concerned about getting separated from them while I'm waiting for them to come down a slide. Anyone tried this and remember where you got them? Thanks!

For our trip in January of last year, we used Wristbands with a Message (based out of Stafford, Texas), and I plan to use them again on our next trip!!
They were about $5 each plus shipping.
I was absolutely thrilled with the selection.
I had them emboss "Please call" and then our two cell phone numbers.

And just FYI, the family we traveled with came up with the great idea of putting the band around their child's ankle instead of wrist...that way their daughter wasn't fiddling with it (i.e. taking it off).

HTH!!

I got mine here: Custom Silicone Wristband Tool by Shanrene

I used the site's specialized design tool (a link is on the main page of the site) to make mine. I put our last name on the left of each, our two cell phone numbers on the right in two lines of smaller print, and a picture icon on each end. DD got butterflies, and DS got stars.

I spent somewhere around $15 for 6 bracelets plus shipping. I got three for each child, since I thought they were such a great idea in general. I got them a couple weeks ago, and I'm very happy with them! Also, the kids love them, so they'll be likely to wear them and keep up with them.

I ordered from Sharene as well.

We used the bracelets during our trip last month and they worked out wonderfully. I prefer these to the shoe IDs because dd wears her Crocs a lot. I was a bit concerned about ds (2yo) keeping it on so I put it on his ankle instead!

Thankfully we didn't NEED them!
