I wouldn't buy any of them. I take it you are still considering the T shirt printing venture?

nappyaddict · 16/04/2010 22:30

Nope don't really have the time right now and even if I were to do it in the future I can't see a way to make it profitable really.

I wouldn't buy slogan t-shirts for my children or me, but I have to admit the "MuthaSucka", "Give peas a chance" and "I'm not the messiah..." did raise a titter.

some were inappropriate, i don't like any of the crude ones for eg ive pooed my pants kind of slogans, or aggressive like "leave me alone" and the breastfeeding ones are smug, i would be to see someone put their kid in that

'Give Peas A Chance' and 'Fossils Rock' sound like the style of the 'David & Goliath' brand. I like their t-shirts.

I would consider the above, dependant on design the rest sound naff

DS does have a MR BUMP top with pic of Mr Bump on and MR BUMP football strip style on the back, that i bought from H&M boys dept for dd when she was 2 (after having to go and ask woman in natural history museum where her childs top was from ) so I will buy things that my kids really really want as long as its not offensive
