KidTagz
Introduces Product to Help Reunite Lost Toddlers with their Parents
HOUSTON
— November 12, 2003 — Houston-based KidTagz, LLC recently introduced KidTagz
into the child safety product market. KidTagz
are an intuitive, affordable tag that can identify a child or relay important
information in the event of an emergency such as a child’s separation from his
or her parents, medical emergencies or allergic reactions.
The
tag is designed to fit securely onto the laces or straps of children’s
shoes. KidTagz are constructed
from waterproof, lightweight plastic and snap tightly around laces and
straps. “The shoe is the most practical
location to place emergency information on a toddler. Clothing is changed regularly.
Toddlers typically do not carry wallets. Necklaces and bracelets are easily broken or lost.” says Shaazia
Stonehocker, president of KidTagz. “Since most toddlers have two or three pairs
of shoes that they wear on a regular basis, parents can put one on each pair,
and forget about it. Each time the
toddler wears his shoes, the parent or guardian’s cell phone number is right
there.”
Parents
can write vital information such as a cell phone number or medical alert
directly on the inside of the plastic shoe tag, and snap it over the child’s
shoelaces, Velcro or sandal strap. No
engraving, no waiting: Just instant peace-of-mind. KidTagz provide only the information others need to help a
child. Like the now-popular Medic Alert
tag, KidTagz will quickly become the standard for communicating
information about children who cannot speak for themselves.
KidTagz is especially useful at shopping malls, amusement parks,
zoos, and other public places where a child is likely to get lost. Daycare centers and schools can use the tag
for identifying children with allergies and special needs. Parents with infants can clip a tag on a car
seat. In the case of an emergency, when
the parent or parents are unconscious, alternate emergency contact numbers or
doctor’s information can be communicated quickly. KidTagz come in several designs for boys and girls and are
intended to accentuate a child’s wardrobe while at the same time, providing
important information. KidTagz
are available in a 2-pack for a suggested retail price of $2.79-$3.29, and are
currently sold at retail stores in Texas, California, Florida, Arizona, and
Hawaii.

LLC was founded in 2002 by Shaazia Stonehocker. Currently, KidTagz are the company’s sole product. The company has plans to release additional
