Dapper James
This righteous little fellow graced our inbox this week & we couldn’t help but share. (How does one manage to be so tiny, yet look so very distinguished?)
James wears the Duck Duck Green organic cotton “Ducksie” & organic cotton Booties by Sckoon. His pachyderm pal is the Baby Elephant, handmade by village artisans in Kenya.
Thank you, James (& your awesome mom) for sharing! You & your cuteness made our week.

Eco Modern Baby hits ddg!
Tomorrow is the first day of spring! After all of this gray winter nonsense, I’m anxious for some sunshine & color. Luckily Eco Modern Baby hit Duck Duck Green this week. Their bold patterns & saturated colors have brightened up our shelves!
Eco Modern Baby designer, Kristen Angelo, brings a fresh perspective to the stuff parents use every day. The Kerchief is the best bib idea ever. Your mini-hipster will look too-cool-for-preschool. (My daughter has been rocking one all week to rave reviews.)
Kristen has kids of her own & it shows in all the little details that make parents fall in love. Check out the Infant Sleeper with snap & zip closure for fumble-free midnight changes- smart! Sleeper sacks are a really smart idea for newborns in general. No loose blankets means a safe & snug sleep.
The Burping Cloth is made with soft organic cotton, so you don’t have to worry about nasty pesticides or chlorine touching your baby’s sensitive skin. Nice! The Change/Play Mat is great for quick diaper changes on the go. Just roll it up & wrap with the simple elastic strap. It’s larger than most baby mats, so it’s great for Tummy-Time too. In fact, we dig it so much, we put it in our Bum Bums Kit!
But what I love most about Eco Modern Baby is how they’re made. All EMB products are designed & manufactured in Seattle, Washington. They even use certified organic cotton textiles grown & milled right here in the USA.
Oh, & they’re nice, too! They recently donated baby blankets to child survivors of the 2010 Haiti natural disaster.
We are so excited to offer these great new products for your baby. Now let the sun shine in!
