the children pulled the hinge out of the cabnet?

Hi any ideas how to help I have a new kitchen and the children pulled on the doors when open and have pulled the screws out of the laminate cabnet side now the holes hinge will not stay tight to the unit and hence I have removed the door to save the bottom hinge from doing the same - any ideas how I can fix it Please.

How about refilling the screw holes with wood filler or wood glue and toothpicks, let it dry and redrill so the original screws will fit tightly again?

Fill the holes with an epoxy wood filler. When it's cured drill pilot holes and replace hinge.
