How Do You Make a Barbie Fishing Rod?

Making a Barbie fishing rod is a great way to introduce kids to the joys of fishing. It can also be an inexpensive and fun way to entertain them during summer months. With a few basic supplies, you can make your own Barbie fishing rod in just a few simple steps.

Gather Materials

To make a Barbie fishing rod, you will need:

  • One Barbie doll (or similar size doll)
  • One small dowel or stick, about 6 inches long
  • Duct tape
  • String or yarn
  • Scissors
  • (Optional) Fishing lures, tackle, and bait

Assemble the Rod

  1. Tape one end of the dowel or stick to the back of the Barbie.
  2. This will be the handle of the fishing rod. Make sure it is secure and that it won’t slip off when handling the rod.

  3. Wrap yarn or string around the dowel several times until it is completely covered.
  4. The string should be tight enough that it won’t slip off when tugged. Make sure to leave some extra string at one end so that you can use this as line for your fishing rod.

  5. Tie a knot at both ends of the string.

  6. This will secure your line and make sure it doesn’t come undone. Trim any excess string.
