Year 2 ducklings have arrived! How egg-citing!

Year 2 really is filled with egg-citement at the moment! Our duckling eggs have finally hatched! 

The children watched eagerly as the ducklings popped out of their eggs, looking rather tired and wet! We had a few gasps of 'ewww, they're so slimy!' but generally on the whole the children can't believe how cute they are. We also can't believe how big they are! How did they fit inside those tiny eggs?!

The ducklings needed a good, old rest after all that hard work and so we have been letting them sleep for the last day or two. 

Now the ducklings have all fluffed up and are looking much more duckling like! We can't wait for some duckling cuddles. They're getting more and more confident and they love having their voices heard (they just don't stop cheeping, even when they're sleeping!).
