Fishing pond

You will need a helper for this fun party game – and make sure that you tie the string at the shoulder height of your party guests.

What you need:

• String
• Single bed sheet
• Fishing rod (or a homemade version using a stick and string)
• Pegs
• Small treats or gifts

Number of players:
1+

Activity:

Tie a string across the room (or between trees) and lie a sheet over it so no one can see what is on the other side.

Use an old fishing rod, or make one using a stick and some string. Attach a peg on the end of the fishing rod’s string.

Let guests take a turn “casting” their line over the sheet. Have your helper stand on the other side and attach small gifts, favours, or treats to the peg. When they’re done, the helper gives a slight tug on the line.

When the kids “reel” in their lines, they’ll be delighted to see what they’ve caught!
