This pretty white mama duck comes with four surprise egg toys that pop open to reveal a baby surprise! Will you find two, three, or four baby ducklings? And is that a… fried egg included in the toy set? Yes, it is. It’s pretty silly in a twisted kind of way. Mama Duck is white and fluffy and interactive and makes more than ten sweet sounds when you press the pink heart on Mama Duck’s wing. Aww…

Not only does Mama Duck make sounds like a real life duck but she waddles, too! Once your surprise baby ducklings hatch, you can attach them onto Mama Duck’s tail and watch them follow her. It’s seriously so cute.

This Pets Alive Mama Duck and Baby Surprise toy set is seriously so cute and we love the size of it. Since the toys included are larger it’s safe and entertaining for ages three plus. Any toddler would find this toy ridiculously fun but it’s also adorable for older kids, too, so it’s a really nice sibling activity. Oh, and there are rare golden ducklings to collect. Will your favorite kiddo be a lucky duck and find one?

Mama Duck Surprise Instructions

So you may be wondering how this adorable duck works. Follow these Mama Duck Surprise Instructions and steps as a guide:

  1. Undo the little tabs at the bottom of the basket. You may need the supervising adult to do this with a tool like scissors to set Mama Duck free.
  2. Maneuver the white tabs underneath Mama Duck’s nest to release her from the nest so she can waddle!
  3. Add your 3 AAA (triple A) batteries to Mama Duck Surprise. You can find this underneath her and you will need a screwdriver.
  4. She will start to waddle and it’s so cute! Play with Mama Duck and the unhatched eggs until you are ready to hatch.
  5. You can easily manually hatch each egg by pressing the tab in the nest, the egg will pop right out and you can open it with Mama Duck Surprise.
  6. The ducks (and maybe your surprise!) will then follow Mama Duck Surprise around as she waddles! That’s it!
