Montessori Catch the Worms — Wooden Magnetic Fishing & Counting Game, Ages 3–6
Full details
Full details
The catching is the reward, so nobody has to supervise the practice. A solid pine block drilled with holes, magnetic wooden fish and worms sitting in them, and a wooden rod on a cord. Lining the magnet up and holding steady is genuinely hard at three — and the click when it takes is enough to make them do it again.
Why the board matters
Loose-fish fishing games scatter. This one holds every piece in its own hole, which does two useful things: the pieces stay put on a table or a car seat, and the empty holes show a child at a glance how many they've caught and how many are left. That's counting arriving through the back door, without anyone naming it.
The worms are the harder catch — smaller, and they sit deeper. Children work out the difficulty ladder on their own and go for the fish first.
Age guidance
3 to 6. Three is pure catching. Four and five start counting the haul and sorting by colour. Six sets themselves rules — worms only, or against the clock.
Materials
Solid pine board with painted wooden pieces, the magnets set down into the wood and capped over rather than glued on. Wooden rod with cord. Twenty-one pieces, so it suits children past putting things in their mouths.
Frequently asked questions
How many pieces? 21 in total, plus the board and rod.
Does it work in the car? Yes — that's the point of the drilled board. The pieces don't roll away.
Does it need batteries? No.
