Wooden Fishing Game Sorter Kruzzel model 22565 – magnetic fish, sorting toy

Kruzzel wooden fishing sorter model 22565 is a combined educational toy that merges magnetic fishing with shape and colour sorting. The set contains multiple wooden fish with embedded magnets and a magnetic fishing rod, together with a sorter base that has shaped openings for placing the caught pieces. Designed for preschool children, this toy supports development of hand-eye coordination, fine motor skills and early recognition of colours and shapes. It is suitable for home play, kindergarten activities and supervised learning sessions.

Advantages

The toy integrates two play principles—magnetic catching and shape sorting—into a single activity, allowing repetitive practice of grasping and placement. Durable wooden construction offers tactile feedback and a stable surface for sorting, while magnetic elements make catching reliable and satisfying for young children. The compact set is lightweight and easy to store, and its simple design enables clear visual differentiation between colours and shapes for early learning.

How to use

Place the sorter base on a flat surface and scatter the wooden fish within easy reach. Use the magnetic rod to catch a fish by bringing the rod magnet close to the piece, lift it and then guide the fish to the sorter opening that matches its shape and/or colour. Repeat the action to practice precision and sequencing; adults can vary difficulty by timing catches, asking children to sort by colour, or requesting specific shapes. Inspect the toy regularly for wear and ensure magnets remain securely embedded.

Usage recommendations

Use under adult supervision for children under recommended age. Combine magnetic fishing with guided sorting exercises to reinforce vocabulary for colours and shapes. Store the set in a dry place to preserve wooden finish and periodically check painted surfaces for chips.
