COOL CRAFTS – PIKACHU EARS Materials: • Yellow foam sheets in 9×12 size • Black foam sheet • Black ribbon • Glue Stick • Pikachu ear template Prep Work: 1. For each Pikachu headband you plan to make, cut a 1 1/2 inch x 12 inch yellow rectangle. 2. Print the ear template to cardstock and cut out the ear shape and the ear tip shape. Trace the left and right ears onto yellow foam sheets and cut out. Trace the right and left ear tip shapes to the black foam sheets. Cut the ribbon into 16 inch pieces, one piece for every headband. Cut the ribbon into 16 inch pieces, one piece for every headband. 3. Prior to the the children arriving, cut out all the shapes. You’ll also want to prep the band (the 1 1/2 x 12 inch strip) so the kids can easily put it together. If you just fold the end of the band in half and cut out a triangle (or circle) it will make the perfect hole to slide the ribbon through later. Do this on both ends of the strip. Kid Assembly: 1. Have the kids glue stick the black ear tips onto the left and right ears. You’ll want each of the ears to be a mirror image of each other. 2. If the crafting kids are old enough, they can staple the ears about 8 inches apart to the inside of the headband strip, aiming to center the ears. 3. String the black ribbon through both the headband holes. Put it on the wearer’s head and tie the ribbon ends together to get the ears to stay on.

Click here to view and print the bingo cards, call sheet, and chips. Cut out and give one bingo card and a handful of poke ball chips to each player. 2. Designate a caller. The caller will randomly pick a Pokémon name from the list provided and announce it to the players. Alternatively, you can print out a second copy of the cards, cut them out, and show the selected Pokémon to the group if everyone does not know the names of the Pokémon. 3. Have players mark the square with a chip when they hear or see a Pokémon name that appears on their card. 4. Players shout "BINGO!" when they get a full line (vertical, horizontal or diagonal) or a full card. Up to you to make your fun rules!

Interlocking foam play mats and tumbling mats are great. So are ropes, toys, cushions, and very stable pieces of furniture. • Things to crawl under or through. If you don’t already have a play tunnel, pull a sheet taut and crawl under it, army style. • Things to throw. Make a station where aim is important. Throwing is a skill very young kids can develop. • Things to balance on. An extra piece of wood in the shed can be a balance beam. So can a floorboard if everyone agrees it’s surrounded by lava. How to Play: The best way to play ‘Obstacle Course’ is by building several stations, each with their own challenge. Each player can race against the clock to see who can complete it the fastest. Embark on the course as a character from the movie on an expedition! Here’s an example of a course: 1. Balance beam. 2. Knock down all the cans. 3. Jump from block to block. 4. Ride the tricycle across the living room while making a silly face. 5. Crawl through the tunnel. 6. Drag a heavy thing past the line. 7. Walk a ping pong ball with a spoon. The individual stations can be anything and are only limited by space and imagination. You can add special challenges as kids figure out how to manage certain obstacles. Most importantly, have fun!
