Hi there, little ducky! Where did you come from? Oh, I know! You must have a mommy duck nearby. Mommy ducks have warm and cozy nests. Let’s go find her!
Okay, little ducky, let’s go on an adventure to find your mommy. Look over there! All the ducks are sleeping so sweetly. It’s nap time, little ducky! Hop in with them!
Oh, it looks like our little ducky friend doesn’t want to nap. Playing is so much more fun!
Come on, everyone! Let’s find a book to read. Nighty night, little duck. Sweet dreams and sleep tight!
Do you see any books, Scout? Not yet, but look! Scout found a little ducky who isn’t sleepy at all. This ducky really wants to play!
Hey ducky, try to catch me! It’s not playtime, but maybe if we play chase, the ducky will get tired and ready for a nap.
Great idea! If the ducky touches you, then you have to try and catch someone else by touching them. Ready, set, go!
Watch out, Crystal! Oh no, now I’m it! You better run!
You can’t catch me, Crystal!
Playing with the little ducky is so much fun! We can learn about taking turns and being gentle with our animal friends. Remember, even when we play, it’s important to be kind and careful.
What a fun day with our ducky friend! Maybe next time, we’ll find a book about ducks and learn even more about them. Until then, keep exploring and having fun!
Duck Observation Walk: Take a walk in a nearby park or garden with your family or friends and look for ducks. Can you spot a mommy duck with her ducklings? Watch how they move and interact. What do you notice about their behavior? Draw a picture of what you see and share it with your class.
Duck Nest Building: Using materials like leaves, twigs, and grass, try to build a cozy nest just like a mommy duck would. How big does it need to be to fit all the ducklings? Think about what makes a nest warm and safe. Share your nest with your classmates and talk about how ducks use their nests.
Role-Playing Game: With your friends or family, play a game of “Duck Family.” One person can be the mommy duck, and others can be the ducklings. Practice taking turns being the leader and following the leader. How does it feel to be the mommy duck? What do you do to keep your ducklings safe and happy?
