Rubber Ducky Day
[For the full experience, you’re gonna want to listen to my rendition of “Rubber Ducky”]
Forty-five years ago today, Jim Henson debuted the “Rubber Ducky” song as Ernie on Sesame Street. It’s one of the more amazing ballads sung by a naked puppet in a bathtub, if I say so myself.
To celebrate Rubber Ducky Day, I ordered a box full of small yellow rubber ducks to leave around places. I left them in puddle both frozen and unfrozen, and sinks both public and private.
On the first day I wanted to leave some out, Cristen was with me and a little boy was approaching where we were. She asked if we should give him one and I said definitely. The kid was kind of hesitant at first, but once he realized he was getting a free toy he was all smiles. He walked away, holding up his rubber ducky proudly.
PS – Fun trivia fact: In 1992, there were 28,000 of these little guys accidentally released into the ocean, and some of them are still floating around today!
Thanks so much for my card and the extra sparkles it made my day.
You’re very welcome! I’m glad you liked it.
Such a crazy, happy, cool idea!! I want to make Guerilla Art as well this year, so this is very inspiring. Maybe I do this next year too 🙂
Thanks for the inspiration,
Sabine
Yay! I’m so glad you like it. 🙂 I had a fun time with it. You should totally make guerrilla art this year, let me know if you need any help/advice.
