What’s New at PuddleDucks?

We’ve added these great new products to the PuddleDucks website recently.

New Waterproof Trousers

In response to customer suggestions we’re pleased to introduce two brightly coloured waterproof trousers that start from age 2 years especially for our younger PuddleDuckers!   The yellow trousers are perfect for all those budding sailors while the pretty pink colour is lovely for the younger girls. They come in sizes from (2 – 3 years ) to (5 – 7 years) and are priced at €21.99.

See the Yellow ones here and the Pink ones here.

Olympic Blue Impact Jacket

Brand new for summer 2010 this lightweight and breathable jacket is designed to appeal to older children and teenagers.  This is a sporty looking jacket in a unisex colour that will suit both boys and girl. It comes in sizes from (9-11 years) to (13-14 years) and is priced at €34.00.

(Apologies – the photo below really doesn’t do the jacket justice! We’re working on getting a better one up on the website soon.)

Digitise the Nation

The Irish Internet Association are organising a collaborative event in May called “Digitise the Nation”. The idea is a “Red Nose Day” for the Internet Industry in Ireland. IIA members can play their part by orgaising events, sharing their knowledge and generally creating a buzz around the net during May. We’re playing our part at PuddleDucks by organising an online quiz called “Research It! – the Online Family Quiz”. More about this soon.

You can read all about Didgitise the Nation here.
