Pokemon cards worth money
So you've got young boys who love
Pokemon and their birthday is fast approaching? Both of my young sons love
Pokemon, they are ages 6 and 9. What is Pokemon you say? Pokemon means "Pocket
Monster" in Japanese. The Pokemon characters all have an HP number, how
much the Pokemon is worth and the higher HP cards are highly coveted young
boys. Anyway, back to your party issue. I just threw a great Pokemon party for
my son's 9th birthday. o Pass the Pokeball
o Pin the Tail on Pikachu
o Pokemon Balloon Dart Throw
o Pokemon Master Tracking
o Gliscor Bean Bag Score
To play this game, I went to a craft
store and purchased a LARGE Styrofoam ball, they seem to range in price from $5
to $11. Give the player who is left a party prize.
Supplies recap:
i. Large Styrofoam ball
ii. Red craft paint
iii. Electrical tape
2. Pin the Tail on Pikachu - Pikachu is one of the main pokemon characters and if your
kids like Pokemon they like Pikachu. I used a picture out of the Pokemon
Handbook that we have, but if you don't have one of those, use a pokemon card
of Pikachu, or print a picture of Pikachu at pokemon.com. Don't draw his tail. Use
a separate posterboard to draw enough Pikachu tails (shaped like a lightning
bolt) for each party guest to have one. After I drew the Pikachu and then drew
the tails, I had my kids color the Pikachu and tails, they loved helping. Cut
out the Pikachu tails. Give a prize to the party guest who gets Pikachu's tail
closest to the right spot.
Supplies recap:
i. Picture of Pikachu
ii. Large white posterboard for drawing picture of Pikachu
iii. Large white posterboard for drawing multiple Pikachu tails only
iv. Double sided tape
v. Bandana
3. Pokemon Balloon Dart Throw - Kids love to pop balloons and throw darts, so put these
two things together in a fun and easy activity. The night before the party I
bought 50 balloons at a party store. Each Pokemon character has an HP value, or
a points value. For example, Pikachu might be 60 HP, Shadowlugia 300 HP, etc...
You can find the names of many Pokemon characters in a Pokemon handbook or you
can find them online at Pokemon.com. Write the name of a different Pokemon and
their HP Number on the strips. We had 6 boys at the party and I blew up 45
balloons. Make each slip of paper with a different character and add the HP
number (use multiples of 10 only for the HP values). We used each character
name only once but reused the HP 50, HP60, HP70, HP80, HP90, etc... However we
only had 1 character (Shadowlugia) that had the highest HP of HP300, no other
card had the HP300 on it. Fold the slips of paper small and poke it inside the
balloon prior to blowing up the balloon. I stored the balloons overnight in
large trash bags and they stayed aired up fine. If you have a large cork board,
attach the balloons with push pins to the cork board. Have the party guests
stand back about 8 feet and throw 2 darts a piece and try to pop the balloons
(like a traditional carnival game). If they pop a balloon have them gather up
and keep the slip of paper with the Pokemon character on it and the HP number
(see the next Pokemon Master tracking as to what to do with the slips of paper
and keeping track of the HP numbers). We played several rounds of this game!
Supplies recap:
Plain white paper
iii. Names of Pokemon characters and made up HP numbers (I did not take the time
to look up each characters real HP number, that is too much work, just put down
any HP number you want, but only have one character with the highest HP
4. Pokemon Master tracking - There is no doubt your kids are familiar
with Ash Ketchum if they like Pokemon, he is a Pokemon master. In order to make
it fun and to get the boys to want to get the slips of paper I put inside the
balloons, I created a Pokemon Master chart to track each party guests
characters and HP values. I used a large white posterboard and wrote Pokemon
Masters at the top and used some Pokemon stickers to decorate with. You can buy
Pokemon stickers, or use sticker paper in your printer and just print some
Pokemon cards or Pokemon characters from the internet. As the boys gathered the
Pokemon character slips from popping the balloons, I had another adult log in
their Pokemon characters and their associated HP Values onto the Pokemon Master
chart. I gave a prizes for the highest HP sum in each round of darts. One child
may pop a balloon with the Pokemon character slip of paper that said Metagross
90 HP and his second pop may have been Snover 60 HP, we recorded these both
onto his square on the Pokemon Master tracking posterboard and his total HP for
the round was 150 HP. At the end of all the balloon popping I gave a prize to
party guest who found the Shadowlugia 300 HP slip of paper, as it was our
highest HP value "card".
Supplies recap:
i. Large white poster board
ii. Pokemon stickers to decorate the tracking poster with
5. Gliscor Bean Bag Score - If you have any type of existing bean bag toss game at
your home, commandeer it for this game. We had a bean bag toss game that had 6
small bean bags. I used another white poster board to draw a Pokemon character
on. Then I lined up the existing bean bag game hole and cut a similar hole in
the character's belly and taped the two together. If you don't have a bean bag
game you can attach your poster board to, you can cut a hole in an old piece of
plywood, or tape your posterboard Pokemon character with the hole in it to a
laundry basket, anything that will basically catch the bean bags. Have the boys
throw the bean bags from about 12-15 feet back and try to get a Gliscor
score!!! Any Pokemon character will work for this game, just cut a hole about 6
inches wide in the posterboard wherever you are wanting the bean bags to go
through. I gave prizes to the ones who scored in the hole, if no one got it in
the hole, I gave a prize each round for the party guest with the bean bag
closest to the hole. You can knock off the bean bags of other players! They
loved this competition.
Supplies recap:
i. Existing Bean Bag toss game if
you have one
ii. White poster board
iv. Picture of desired Pokemon character
v. Crayons/markets
vi. Bean bags (existing or home made)
The boys at this party were between
the ages of 6 and 9 and they absolutely loved playing these game. GOODY BAGS
For goody bags, I added candy like individual starburst, small M&M's
packages, and gummies. Last but not least, I bought two 10 card each packs of
Pokemon cards and divided those up so each goody bag got 3 Pokemon cards in it
as well.
