My kids are always so excited when a package comes in the mail because they know that most likely, it contains some cool product that we are going to review. At least one of the three is always standing right over me, especially if it’s a big box. “What is it? What is it?” Sometimes it’s a cool toy or game or a new snack food, but this time?
Underwear. And Socks. “But look!”, I said, “this is COOL underwear! Boxer shorts with a fly that won’t gap! Tagless underpants, panties for Kaitlyn with the no-wedgie promise! Soft, cushy socks!”
They were skeptical. I was thrilled! These were Hanes Kids socks and undies, with Comfort-Fit Waistbands and Comfort-Fit Promises and No-Roll Waistbands! Guess that makes me a Mom for sure, being excited about underwear 
I was really hoping that the soft “big-girl” panties would get Kaitlyn excited about potty training, and although they fit her really well and stayed up thanks to the no-roll waistband, they were not impervious to her refusal to use the potty rather than just pee on the floor. Sigh. I do like the fact that the panties don’t have characters on them which should appeal to people who don’t want to purchase licensed merchandise for their children.
Nathan put a pair of the boxers on at bedtime, and true to the label, the fly didn’t gap open, even when he sat on the floor. I asked him for a few words for this review and he volunteered this:
“They are really comfortable, and they are great to sleep in.”
Thanks, Nathan! I really appreciate Parent Bloggers Network sending me these products for review; I was already a Hanes fan, especially for t-shirts for my husband. OH, speaking of which though, my husband asked me to say this about the Tagless t-shirts for men (which were not part of this review but he wanted to contribute which is a big deal for him):
“I like the fact that there’s no tag, except that it makes it hard to put the t-shirt on in the dark.”
Good point, honey. So, hey, want to win some Hanes for yourself? Parent Bloggers Network will be having a Blog Blast on August 22nd, so watch the site for more info on that!

Too funny! My daughter hates wedgies and isn’t shy about letting the world know she has one! In the middle of Wal-Mart, she’ll say, let me get down. I have a wedgie! Too bad (for me) she has such a loud voice and can speak quite clearly!!
I love Hanes for their tagless stuff. Some brands try to stick tags in the side of the shirt, and it happens to be right where I hold my daughter on my hip. Really rubs my skin raw. It’s worse than if the tag was just on the neck!!
