Montessori Wooden Fishing Game, 51 Fish and 3 Magnetic Rods, Ages 3+

Fifty One Fish, Three Rods, One Bucket

The fish lie flat on the floor and the magnet on the end of the rod lifts them one at a time. There is no hook to aim and no knack to learn, so a three year old catches something on the very first try. The fish come in several colours and carry numbers, so the same set gets sorted into piles and lined up as often as it gets fished. Everything goes back in the bucket, which is the reason it actually gets tidied away.

Why parents love it

• Three rods, so nobody waits: two children and an adult can fish at the same time.
• It catches on the first try: the magnet does the work, the rod only has to touch the fish.
• It sorts as well as it catches: numbered fish in several colours, laid out in piles or in order.
• The whole set lives in the bucket: 51 pieces, one container, 7.2 in across.
