Crab Fishing Rod, appr. 38 cm
Simple, clever, and great fun on the pier. Â
Clip on a small piece of sausage or deli meat and lower the bait into the water. Before long, a curious crab may grab hold. Your child can then gently reel it in for a closer look, without having to put their hands in the water or handle the crab directly.Â
Take it along to the beach or harbour. It's also great fun on holidays by the sea or other waterside destinations.Â
Crab fishing is a great way to spark your child's curiosity about life beneath the waves. Which bait will be the biggest hit with the crabs: cold cuts, fish cake, or maybe a piece of cheese? And are there other creatures lurking below that might be tempted by the bait too?
There's more to crab fishing than simply dropping in the bait. It takes a steady hand, a little precision, and plenty of patience while waiting to see if a crab decides to investigate. It's a lovely reminder that not all excitement happens instantly. Sometimes the best moments come to those who wait.Â

What makes this product special
Toys for learning through play
Play is essential for children’s learning, well-being, and development. Through play, children learn about themselves and the world around them.
Play helps children:
• stay curious
• focus and become absorbed in what they're doing
• take on age-appropriate challenges
• build confidence
We believe children learn best by doing things for themselves:
• by making mistakes
• by getting messy
• by falling down and getting back up again
Resilience, confidence, and courage grow through experience, one small step at a time.
That's why we carefully choose toys that encourage independence, imagination, movement, and social skills — offering just the right balance of support, freedom, and opportunities to grow.
Carefully selected toys
We carefully handpick every toy from the vast world of toys available today. The only toys that make it into our range are ones we'd be happy to give our own children.
Every toy at ToyAcademy should:
• support learning through play
• be made from durable, high-quality materials
• be safe and enjoyable for children to play with

Measures 38 cm.Suitable for children aged 3 yrs. to Seniors
With good gear of the correct size, your child can get practical experience working with their hands. Little ones will have fun, learn to solve problems, and be inspired to try out entrepreneurship and design and build something – or with help from an adult. It boosts your child's self-confidence.
Supports essential skills that really benefit your child's well-being and ability to learn:
- This type of play strengthens your child's depth perception. Strong depth perception skills help your child stay safe when navigating traffic.
- Strengthens hand-eye coordination, a skill we use for example when cutting accurately with scissors, pouring a glass of water without spilling, or when throwing, kicking, or catching the ball that comes flying at us in the playground.
