My world with a one year old daughter seems to be full of bright yellow ducks. Its one of her first words which is great, but take her to the canal or the local lake and show her the ducks and she is very interested but never once says "duck". She just doesn't make the connection between her bright yellow toy ducks and the real thing. She does however always say "duck" when she sees her yellow teddy girrafe. It just struck me how strange it is that pretty much every toy / cartoon duck you see in books etc is always yellow.

"duck"
"Its one of her first words"
One of my sons first words wasn't too many letters of the alphabet away from that. My wife moderated her language whilst driving shortly afterwards.

However most of the ducklings I've seen have looked like this;
Is there a particular type that looks all yellow?

I was thinking exactly the same last night (and quickly remembered that duckings are, indeed, yellow).

My daughter has yellow, blue, green and purple toy ducks.
They don't come in any of those colours at our local lake.
What are we doing to our children?

I wanna know how do programmers know kiddies will like Iggle Piggle, Po, Peppa, Upsie Daisy etc?
Our 9 month olds are captivated by In The Night Garden but the news leaves them cold. And so does The Simpsons.

I think the yellow ones are domestic hybrid ducklings.
Either that or they're anodised.

I had a blue rubber duck and a red rubber duck. And a white one, which might have just been a yellow one left in the sun.

I quite embarrasingly found out (the way parents let these little nuggets slip at the worst moment!)that i once had a bath toy, i insisted on calling the little pink fecker "Dopey Dolphin".
It was a seal apparently.

living near a canal we see large groups of ducklings in the spring. Usually they are brown/yellow, with prehaps an all yellow one in every 50 or so.
