Laundry Hamper Fishing

Do your kids tirelessly empty your laundry hamper to play in it like mine do? I finally gave in to their demands requests and gave them an activity to do with one of those hampers! We have done it countless times now and my boys still ask for it! What I absolutely love is it takes so few supplies and entertains for ages (maybe even enough time to fold that laundry they dumped out)!

Supplies

• Laundry hamper
• Kitchen tongs
• Fish toys
• Blue blanket

If you have one of those fancy toy fishing sets, then this will be even easier to set up. We don’t, so we made do by using a pair of kitchen tongs as a makeshift pole- it worked like a charm!

To set up I set out a blue blanket for water, added some fish, the “boat” and the tongs. That’s it!

This was soon much fun! Once they caught all the fish, we threw them back in the water (sport fishing, here 😉 and did the activity again!
