Altoid Tin Fishing Game


Altoid Tins make great crafts.  I took this one and spray painted it blue. This is a game for older children as the pieces can be pretty small.

I cut out some small fish from fun foam and hot glued magnets on the back of each one.  I made a small fishing pole with a string attached (and a magnet on the end of the string).  I have used this game when teaching about Tax Money in a Fish (Matthew 17:24-27).  I glue a small paper coin on the back of one fish and they have to find it.  I have also used this game for Jesus Calling His Disciples or  "Fishers of Men".  I wrote the names of the apostles on each fish and they had to fish out each one and put them in the order in which they were called.

  1. I had to pin this into 2 boards because I have an entire board for altoid tins, in addition to my board for the Gospels.

  2. Here I am checking Pinterest for a fresh idea for next week's Bible lessons at school. My pinterest link sent me to a 10 commandment with hands printout from greenlawn.org. I traced back my pinterest source and came to this blog! I've been here before...and didn't realize it was you, Angela! (From Michelle L. in San Antonio!!)
