Games with Ducks
It would be easy to think of the rubber duck as just a bath time or water table toy. However, this brightly colored buddy deserves a presence in your program because of its versatility and simplicity. Here are a few games you can use with ducks. Fish for a duck! Attach magnets to ducks floating in the water table and use poles with magnets tied to the strings to fish them out. Stamp with rubber ducks. Pour paint in a shallow container or plate, then dip the bottom of the rubber duck into the paint. Stamp away on construction paper. After the paint has dried, draw eyes, beak, and feet with markers. Use different size ducks with different colored paints to make beautiful, unique designs! Hold an indoor scavenger hunt. Choose ducks of different colors and find what matches in the classroom. If rubber ducks are yellow, what else is yellow?
