Rubber Ducky

Ranked #23,953 in Entertainment, #267,923 overall

Why ducks? When my son was born, I had a Rubber Ducky-themed shower. Then, for some reason, I received a few Rubber Ducks for Christmas. Since we now have a mini-collection of Rubber Ducks, I decided to learn a bit more about them and share with other Squidoo-ers.

Rubber Duckies for Science

In 1992, a crate of children's floating toys, including rubber ducks, fell off their cargo ship somewhere in the mid-Pacific. When they began showing up along the coast in Sitka, Alaska, Dr. Curtis Ebbesmeyer took notice. He has been tracking the toys ever since and using their journeys to learn more about ocean currents. To learn more about Dr. Ebbesmeyer and the heroric ducklings, you can visit his website.


Rumor has it that The First Years, a toy company, has offered $100 savings bond reward for the recovery of any the remaining toys. I'm working on substantiating that one!

Rubber Ducky lyrics

Rubber Ducky, you're the one,
You make bathtime lots of fun,
Rubber Ducky, I'm awfully fond of you;

Woo woo be doo

Rubber Ducky, joy of joys,
When I squeeze you, you make noise!
Rubber Ducky, you're my very best friend, it's true!

Doo doo doo doo, doo doo

Every day when I
Make my way to the tubby
I find a little fella who's
Cute and yellow and chubby

Rub-a-dub-a-dubby!

Rubber Ducky, you're so fine
And I'm lucky that you're mine
Rubber ducky, I'm awfully fond of you.

Every day when I
Make my way to the tubby
I find a little fella who's
Cute and yellow and chubby

Rubber Ducky, you're so fine
And I'm lucky that you're mine
Rubber ducky, I'm awfully fond of -
Rubber ducky, I'd like a whole pond of -
Rubber ducky I'm awfully fond of you!

Doo doo, be doo
