School of Fish Romper: World of Eric Carle™

This timeless romper for babies and toddlers features Eric Carle’s iconic School of Fish, rendered in vivid colors on cool, durable linen. Like much of Carle’s work, the art encourages interaction — and we bring those same elements to the romper. The rainbow of fish are cleverly arranged in color-coded counting groups—one big fish, two blue fish, three green fish, and beyond—a joy for little ones to identify the colors and numbers for anyone within earshot. The rich textures of the linen outer, cotton lining, matte buttons, and zigzag rickrack trim add a sensory dimension little hands love to explore.

Originally created by Carle for educators' classrooms, the School of Fish illustration was later displayed as a mural at The Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art in Amherst, Massachusetts. We've engineered the art in a unique way on this playsuit: the number of fish visible varies by garment size. The larger sizes display more numerous groupings, up to eleven. The fish remain the same size across all versions, but older children will discover the additional counting elements as they grow. 

Made from breathable linen and fully lined with soft cotton, this summer romper keeps little ones cool and comfortable through active play. Wide ocean-blue linen shoulder straps stay in place and feel gentle on sun-kissed shoulders. Pair it with our Girls Mermaid Dress for a coordinating sibling set that’s perfect for warm-weather outings and family adventures.
