Fishing for hearts

Love is in the air and in the water.  We made this heart fishing game using:

– cardstock
– heart paper punch
– paper towel roll
– string
– magnet

Our fish were made with love, I mean hearts (one large one for the body and a smaller one for the head).  We added a paper clip to each fish, and added a different number of hearts on each one to make this into a counting game.

My daughter decorated the paper towel roll, which we then turned into a fishing pole by adding string and a very large magnet

The object of the game is to catch a fish using the pole.  Once you catch one, you count the number of hearts and match it to a heart with the corresponding number.
