This is my third, and penultimate, post about the
Gift Fair, covering just a few of the many eco-awesome products I saw there.
A few of my eco-awesome favorites:
Modern Twist – I love just about everything from this company that makes“eco-chic products for a sustainable planet." All their products are 100% recyclable and reusable, and have terrific modern design. They have BPA and chemical free
Kidz Placemats ($17) that are made from food-grade silicone so they won’t tear or crease. These placemats are also available as a
Kidz Box ($26) which also includes markers kids can use to color (and re-color) their mats. There are also great
placemats for us adults ($13-$18).

Artterro - These eco-friendly art kits are perfect for crafty kids. Each kit contain the supplies for a project such as
collage jewelry or
art dolls, and are designed to be open-ended and encourage kids to use their imaginations. When you're done, the box from the kit becomes the frame to display your creation. Made in the USA of all natural materials.
Woolly Boo - This NJ-based company makes gorgeous bedding and sleep sacks, all from organic wool and cotton and all made in the USA in conjunction with farmers and weavers who are committed to sustainable practices and fair trade. New this year is the
All-in-One Nap Mat, perfect for kids to use at preschool, day care or when traveling.
Tomorrow I'll be back with a final
Gift Fair update, which of course will be all things Duck in honor of
Big Duckie.
