About
The rubber duck is a small, hollow bath toy sized to fit easily inside a child's hand.
Most bath toys are built for small hands, but rubber ducks can vary from miniature novelty keychains to giant floating art sculptures. Unlike real waterfowl, these toys are made of lightweight vinyl and filled with air so they can float upright. At this size, the duck weighs about half as much as a standard chicken egg.
From Wikipedia
A rubber duck, or rubber duckie, is a toy shaped like a duck that is usually yellow with a flat base. It may be made of rubber or rubber-like material such as vinyl plastic.
