It is that time of year again - Rubber Ducky Day! Mom loves to post pictures of us with our Rubber Duckies.
Georgie is more sleepy than interested in hers. |
Instead of the usual "Rubber Ducky Song" sung by Ernie of Sesame Street fame - today we have a cool video of Little Richard singing the song. Waay cooler, right?
If you can't see the You Tube video then go here.

Did you know that the rubber ducky was inducted into the the National Toy Hall of Fame in 2013? The museum, located in Rochester NY explained - "With their bright color, smooth texture, and (for some) squeaky or
quacky sounds, rubber ducks sharpen toddlers’ senses. Their presence in
the bathtub soothes youngsters’ fears of water and water immersion and
makes good clean fun of the routine hygiene they’re learning."

Another trivia bit on rubber duckies - On Aug. 8, 1981, Baltimore Mayor William Donald Schaefer — nicknamed “Donald Duck” —
jumped into a 79° seal tank at the city’s National Aquarium, clutching a
rubber duck and wearing a Victorian bathing suit, in a stunt to draw
attention to the institution.
