Let's Celebrate Rubber Duckie Day!

Celebrated Every January 13th.

January 13th has been chosen as National Rubber Duckie Day. Rubber Duckies first appeared in the late 1800s. Ernie on Sesame Street loved his Rubber Duckie bathtub toy, and seeing him with this toy made the Rubber Duckie very popular.

How will I celebrate National Rubber Day? I am going to buy Rubber Duckie gifts for my two youngest grandkids. I have already ordered them on Amazon. Once they arrive, I will take them the gifts, watch Ernie sing the Rubber Duckie song, and then head to the bathtub with the new Rubber Duckies. I will enjoy watching them having a splashing good time. (they are 2 and 3 yrs old:-)

Happy National Rubber Duckie Day!
