The first time my grandfather rolled Duck Runner (aka Duckie) across the floor in front of my 3-year-old feet lo those 52 years ago, I was smitten. Duckie flapped the ground with rubber feet as Grandpa quacked. For days I pushed the toyās extended handle everywhere I went.
Years later, my own kids loved Duckie just as too, almost as much as our pet cat. Such a simple toy brought decades of joy.Ā
Imagine my delight in finding Duck Runner at Seattleās Pacific Northwest Shop. Handmade by Fall City-based Deep Forest Woodworks, the Duck Runner push toy is a throwback ā and an invitation ā to simple memories and simpler times.
