Bitty Braille T-shirt Contest

Hip, Adorable, and Educational – these t-shirts go beyond the call of duty…

review-bittybraille-julia.jpg

It is a beautiful concept – create custom, handmade products that introduce Braille to kids. And Julie Dutt, a busy homeschooling mom and army wife, has brought the idea to life with her unique children’s collection, Bitty Braille.

Bitty Braille tees feature simple “kid-friendly” words set in Braille type in either sparkly faceted metal studs for the girls or simple metal studs for the boys. The translation is hand-embroidered underneath in a simple print or cursive.

These are absolutely perfect gifts for showers, birthdays, etc. (You can even have the tees personalized with the child’s name.)

As an added bonus, a portion of every sale is donated to the American Foundation for the Blind (afb.org).

And – don’t miss out on their end-of-summer sale. All the short sleeve tees are on sale for 25% off!

If you would like to win a tee for a little one in your life, just leave a comment to be entered. We’ll draw a random winner on Friday, Sept 14th. (We will have two winners and this contest is open to both US and Canadian shipping addresses.)
