Ducks
Feeding the ducks is always a fun pastime with children, who love their distinctive "quack" and the way the waddle on land but glide so gracefully on the water. A male duck is called a drake, and a baby duck is known as a duckling.
Fun Fact: the most famous duck in the world is Walt Disney's Donald Duck, who first appeared in a cartoon in 1934.
We've got duck printables and duck colouring pages for the kids to enjoy - perfect for a farmyard theme.

Five Little Ducks
Five little ducks went out one day,
Over the hill and far away.
Mother duck said "Quack, quack, quack."
But only four little ducks came back.
Four little ducks went out one day,
Over the hill and far away.
Mother duck said "Quack, quack, quack."
But only three little ducks came back.
Three little ducks went out one day,
Over the hill and far away.
Mother duck said "Quack, quack, quack."
But only two little ducks came back.
Two little ducks went out one day,
Over the hill and far away.
Mother duck said "Quack, quack, quack."
But only one little duck came back.
One little duck went out one day,
Over the hill and far away.

But none of the five little ducks came back.
Sad mother duck went out one day,
Over the hill and far away.

And all of the five little ducks came back!
