Fishing for Goodies
Cast your line into this basket full of treats and see what you can catch!
Difficulty: Moderate
What you'll need:
  • 1 bag M&M® Brand Milk Chocolate Candies
  • 8 pieces plastic wrap (5 inches square)
  • Tape
  • 16 sheets yellow or gold cellophane (12 x 18 inches)
  • 16 strands orange curling ribbon (12 inches square)
  • 16 google eyes
  • 16 yellow craft feathers
  • 8 heart stickers
  • Non-toxic glue
  • 8 strands purple curling ribbon (16 inches square)
  • 8 magnet pairs
  • Glue
  • Deep basket or large box
What to do:
  1. Scoop 1/3 cup of M&M® Brand Milk Chocolate Candies into the center of each plastic wrap square. Bring the sides of the wrap up and around the candy, twisting it tightly and forming a ball. Cut off any excess plastic wrap and tape the top closed.
  2. Lay two sheets of cellophane on top of each other. Place the ball of M&M® Brand Milk Chocolate Candies in the center. Gather the sides of the cellophane up and around the candy, twisting it tightly. Tie it closed with two strands of orange ribbon.
  3. Glue google eyes on the front of each ball for the eyes, and feathers on the sides for the fins. Attach the heart sticker on the front of the ball for the mouth.
  4. Glue one half of the magnet set onto each fish’s mouth and the other half on the end of each strand of ribbon.
  5. Place the goldfish in a deep basket. Lay the ribbons next to the basket. Before the kids leave, have them each choose a strand of ribbon and go "fishing" by dipping the end of the ribbon with the magnet into the basket and catching a goldfish.
