Mark My Word

As much as celebs adore getting inked with their sweetie's name (until the breakup hits the cover of Us Weekly and laser removal ensues), kids love temporary tattoos. As soon as they figure out they can cover themselves with dinosaurs (or princesses or ninjas), they're hooked. You, on the other hand, spend the next few days trying in vain to peel off that last little bit of dragon wing.

Why not turn their ink obsession into a learning op? Tattoos for Tots offers kid-friendly designs with a twist; each tattoo includes a word to match the picture, helping kids make the important connections that lead to reading. And since the tattoos usually stick around for days, the lessons have plenty of time to sink in.

All the major kid themes are covered – robots, animals, insects, oceans, cars – in vivid colors and charming designs. You'll appreciate the fact that they're age-appropriate, especially when you think back to the skull tattoo your kid wore proudly on his forehead to his preschool interviews.

So as Britney checks for any K Fed-referencing body art, your little one will be safe with trains, trucks and trees – and he'll still feel like a rock star.
