Use wallet-sized photos as gift tags
Gwen's hack is one of those gems that solves a problem AND reduces clutter at the same time. Think about this for holiday gifts as well:
When my children bring a party gift to a child who can't read yet, we don't attach a gift card to the bag. Instead, I grab a picture out of the pile of those extra wallet-size photos that you don't know what to do with, but can't bear to dump in the trash. I punch a hole in the top corner of the photo, write the child's name on the back, and attach the picture to the gift.
(or any Amazon link at Parent Hacks), you throw some change into our tip jar without any extra steps or cost to you. Thank you!
Excellent idea!!!

What a great idea! I have so many of those wallet pics just looking for a use.
Thank you!

This is also useful at Christmas for easy present distribution. Put a picture on the present of who it is for.

What a great idea! And if you don't have any wallets lying about you can always print some out!

I used my extra wallet pictures to make bag tags for the diaper bags. I bought some laminating luggage tag things from Target and put the wallet size pictures in there. I put our contact info on a sticker on the back. The little old ladies at the church day care just love it.

This would double as a great gift for the grandparents during the holidays! They get a great gift, and pic of they're beautiful grand-baby at the same time!
