I would not buy these again, nor would I recommend them. A few of the came flat and some of ducks the letters of the alphabet are already rubbing off.

Not perfect but overall OK
The ABC rubber duck set has a few issues. First of all, the letters are hard to see on some of the ducks. Secondly, one duck is mismarked - its letter does not match its design. Lastly, one duck is crushed and won't stand up properly. It arrived in that condition.
However, my daughter loves them. She likes to line them up in order and work on letter recognition. They are super affordable and overall fulfill my expectations.

2 year old likes them
These ducks are super cute and my daughter likes them very much. My only problem with them is some of their necks are warped so they look like they permanently shrugging.

Letters G and O need makeovers!
The ABC Duckies are a great idea and you did a great job of finding unique representations of the letters............except for the letters Gg and Oo,. The G duckie was green, which was fine except that there is a ghost in IN-25/3027 and gingerbread duckies in the Christmas assortment IN-13673109. The O duckie was red ( I assume it was originally orange but got sunburned); you have an orange duckie in the fruit set, IN-13686233.

Cute and Decent
I bought these to use as potty incentives for my 2 year old. They are great in that they are simple, have the alphabet and are pretty easy to identify. Like the other people have said, the "O" duck which is supposed to be orange, is actually red...but I get around that by saying it's about the beak not the body.
Also, I wouldn't say that these are made to last a long time, but they are cute and do the job in the short term.

Quacking Me Up...
First purchased on a popular shopping site and was VERY disappointed. Promptly returned and turned to OTC and found not only the ABC duckies but several other themes that were perfect for the gift I'm putting together for an adult who has EVERYTHING. Very happy with my purchase.

Good purchase for the price
I bought these duckies for my preschool classroom to help teach the alphabet. They are great except for two letters:
The "O" duck is red not orange, & the "Y" duck, I have no clue what it's supposed to be. I'm guessing 'yak', but it looks like Frankenstein with weird blonde hair. Otherwise I know my kids will live them.

Great Customer Service
We had an issue with our package of these ducks. Oriental Trading responded very promptly and provided great customer service to resolve our issue.

Good if in a budget
I'm sure there are better looking rubber duckies out there. But it's impossible to beat the price. Some duckies were pretty cute, others not so much. But overall, it's a good buy for the price.

Purchased the duckies along with the book "The Ugly Duckling" and read it to the toddlers. They loved it and than put the ducks in water. Great time
At our infant/toddler care/learning center, we try to match stories with actual visual activities--this makes a learning experience fun for 2-3 year olds. Lucky it was a hot day, since we put water in a wagon and let the kids splash and play with the ducks and continued with the theme of the book "The Ugly Duckling." Soon the kids agreed, none of the ducks were ugly--just different. Not bad for 2-3 year olds and I am sure the task was made easier because of Oriental's great supply of learning materials and my daughter's ability to teach toddlers while at the same time they are playing. Thank you. I'm look for more items to pair together where teaching meets fun, which in turn makes happy little ones.

Great for a K learning center!
I teach kindergarten and use them at my alphabet puzzle center. Once the alphabet puzzle, (I use large floor puzzles or the small foam alphabet squares that fit together) is put together, then they put the duckies on the matching letter. I have 4 students to a center. They work together to put the puzzle together and then again to match the duckies. This is usually a difficult task in the first month or 2 of school and can not be completed in the 10 minutes they have at that center. However, after a couple of months, most groups get the task down before the 10 minutes are up. I reward them with one gummy bear each or a smelly stamp on the hand for completion. Then I tell them to take it all apart and try to complete it again in the few minutes they have left at that center. I've used the same set of duckies for 3 1/2 years. They hold up well to the abuse they receive from 5 yr olds.

I bought these for my daughter's pre-K class. The teacher added them to her treasure box and the kids love them. Great purchase!!
