OSAKA (REUTERS) - A bathhouse in Osaka is offering Japanese children the chance to swim with over 1,000 rubber ducks as a winter treat.

"It's really fun to be surrounded by rubber ducks," said visitor Yuto Itani. "It is also refreshing to soak in a bath with a perfect water temperature."

The owner said that the concept, started 12 years ago, aims to create a bathtime experience patrons won't be able to experience at home.

However, it's not just a treat for the kids. The rubber duck bath is also open for adults.
