I hope you are enjoying summer so far, even though it is very humid here! I started to forget what it was like to have a sunny day.
Having said that, we’ve been sharing some fun toys and activities for the kids to enjoy over the holidays, and this week’s feature is great to enjoy both indoors and out! Here’s what we thought of the Melissa & Doug Let’s Explore Fishing Play Set.
You might want to check out our previous feature, trampoline tennis! This is a great game for playing outside.
Melissa & Doug Let’s Explore Fishing Set
We love Melissa & Doug toys and have owned quite a few over the years. They’re well thought out, durable, and most of all, fun!
This adorable role play toy has everything little anglers need to explore and learn to fish.


What you get in the game bundle
- 2 x wooden poles with scrolls
- 6 x Double-sided Wooden Fish
- 4 x play worms in bags
- fishing guide
- fishing background
- medal
- license
- a ruler
- a net
- a suitcase

The Let’s Explore Fishing Playset is perfect for both indoor and outdoor play. Kids can choose to fish in winter or summer by flipping the reversible fishing mat.
Using the guide, little ones can keep track of their catch by filling in the stats for each fish caught. There is also a small wooden ruler to measure the length of each fish.
The guide is reusable and wipeable so it can be used again and again.

These games are great for practicing fine motor skills and hand/eye coordination. Kids must focus and maneuver the miniature fishing rod to hook the fish.
This is especially beneficial for my autistic son who sometimes has trouble grasping things the right way.
Let’s explore fishing playset is a great fun activity for kids. They can even pack it all in a small suitcase and take it with you on trips and vacations.
