Advantages: Huge Variety of Designs and Price Ranges

Disadvantages: We Have to Grow Up Someday

Rubber Ducks are taking over our bathroom slowly but surely. It started out as a normal thing, we had a few rubber ducks from Tesco in there for our grandson when he was little. Now he's not so little but still insists on having his duckies in the bath!

These days, you don't just get the regular yellow ones like we got excited about when we were tots. Our grandson has all sorts including a devil duck with horns, a football duck which is patterned like a black and white football and a wedding groom duck which is wearing a top hat and tails.

The really fancy ducks are made by a company called Bud and their prices are affordable and reasonable for adult collectors (around £6 for a small duck) as they're good quality and they come in loads of really fun and interesting designs. They're a bit much for a small kid though.

There are some interesting ones that are a bit more of a bargain to be found on the website Justducks which sells all sorts of rubber ducks from 99p up to around £25. A chunk of the ducks taking over our bathroom came from this website.

The other place to look is in the pound shops or on the market as sometimes they do cheap versions that are rough around the edges but in fancy designs that are something a bit different. The best bargain find has to be that football duck which our grandson actually hunted out himself at the tills in Matalan, the daughter hadn't even noticed until he reached up and put it on the counter instructing Mummy to "pay the lady"!

Summary: Highly Recommended for Youngsters.
