Giant Emotions Fishing Game

With this giant fishing game, your child can fish for emotions. The set includes discs depicting different emotions, such as happy, sad, angry, upset, worried, and surprised (three of each expression). 

Try telling a story where your child has to fish out the right emotions to match the events. This can help your child understand and communicate both their own and other people's emotions. 

Big and small feelings and emotions can be overwhelming and confusing to navigate for younger children or kids with special needs. This game is a lovely way to build a vocabulary for talking about feelings and emotions. It is also helpful in terms of identifying what your child is actually feeling and experiencing.

We often associate fishing games with quiet play that helps children develop fine motor skills as they try to catch the fish. But this giant fishing game requires your child to be active and use their body and hand-eye coordination to hook the fish.

That’s why this game makes a great gift, both for little live wires and for kids who would benefit from more physical play.

Check out our blog to learn more about why it's important to stimulate your child's proprioception, whether you have a little bundle of energy or a quieter kid. 

Made of durable HPDE plastic suitable for outdoor play. The fish won't mind if you leave them in the wet grass or they get rained on. But it’s best to store them in the shade, as the sun can be tough on plastic, even the very durable kind.

Includes two fishing rods, so two children can play together. 18 discs.

Comes with a practical mesh bag for storage.

The activity is wonderful for your child's well-being and ability to learn:

• Strengthens hand-eye coordination, which you make use of e.g. when kicking or catching a ball that comes flying at you in the playground, or when cutting an accurate line with scissors.
• Invites your child to use their ability to concentrate.
• Inspires your child to practise social skills, such as being able to lose, listen, trade toys, or wait their turn, being tolerant and patient, and trying to read the situation.

Board games, card games, and dice games are activities with clear and defined boundaries, which many children love. And such games can be a nice contrast to wild, free play with friends at school or kindergarten - games have rules, and for many children that can be a relief.

At the same time, playing games gives your child an opportunity to learn to cope with losing. We suggest that you don't always let your child win when you play a game. Teach your children to cope with the disappointment of losing in a safe setting with you. This helps make children robust and resilient, which will benefit them later in life when they have to handle things on their own and you are no longer there to protect them from disappointment and defeat.
