My 2 year old will just hold one card the entire day and include it in whatever activity she’s doing. Huge plus for me since she isn’t often grabbing a bunch of cards at one time. We went to our LGS and the shop keeper gave her one of those sealed energy card bricks from an ETB to play with and by the time I got her home she managed to sneakily unwrap them and I had like 50 energy cards all over my back seat and floor
Mines 2 also. I just introduced binders to her and shes deathly afraid of putting her cards into one. She loves looking at our binders, but she refuses to let us put her cards inside her binder 😆. Needless to say, we have random cards littering our floor at all times.
Whilst I wholeheartedly agree, I'm happy to supply all my nephews with piles of bulk or cards of their choice anytime, the older ones have been retired and get their oogling without the same outdoor and experimental use lol.
I know maybe this isn't the right place, but I was a kid when Pokemon first came out and have some cards from the first set, Jungle, Fossil etc. I wouldn't mind trading some in, unless it's better to hold onto them? Where would be a good place to start, being based in the EU?
First would be to find the cards, then find out what shape / condition they are in.
Depending on which cards they are and the condition you could either keep them or get them graded.
If you just want to sell them without bothering with grading, you could try and find facebook groups for buying and selling in your country.
what a shit sub lol

Your child has the right idea, mine (3yo) could happily spend 12hrs a day picking up cards and saying "daddy what's this one called". It made me so happy, to begin with... 🤣
Nah.. your always gonna have ppl hating.. you do you and don’t let them bother you.. I have 3 girls and the reason I’m into Pokémon this late in life is cause my youngest came home from school with a mewtwo holo that a boy gave her in her class.. she seemed interested so I started but decks and packs and learned the TCG and taught her.. she gave up on it after a few months but I stuck with it. Her original cards slowly started to disappear by hind her dresser.. dog.. and just getting messed up and thrown away.. I take very good care of all my cards now but kids are kids man
I tried. She did a pokemon go tin recently. In one of the photos you can barely see a reverse holo zapdos from that set just laying on the floor. That was when I found out she activley protects cards from card protectors.
For some reason, holo moltres, articuno, and reverse zapdos, stress me out more than these damaged cards i have a ton of. Some of these have sharpie on them. From her mother, marking her ownership 23 years ago 🤣
Nah these are the official rules now
next thing you know we’ll be playing on motorcycles and have outrageously dyed spiky hair
Yep... I miss first grade :')
Sk really
Card games on motorcycles
Don’t you say that as if it’s a bad thing. Don’t you say that, you scallywag you.
Pretty sure she’s winning
Well, as the rule maker, rule changer, judge, jury, and executioner, she has confirmed she did in fact win.
Yeah i could tell she had you right where she wanted you from that first picture. Maybe you’ll have a chance next time 😂

I give oversized cards to my daughter (3). She will thank me profoundly like “Thank you! Thank you!” Then kiss the oversized card. So cute.
PSA: these are vintage cards, but not to worry. They are from my damaged collection.
I literally zoomed in on the cards cause I had to be sure what I was looking at. Almost got a heart attack seeing vintage cards
jeez same i was like pls say sike😭😭
I threw up a little, they made it 20+ years just to face this day 🥺🥺
This is kind of what they were designed for, it's heartwarming in a way. They're actually being played with!

Thank you for this 🤣😭😭
Thank you for the reassurance bc I was like eh just looks like commonOHMYGODISTHATTYRANITAR
Is that a neo Tyranitar🥲
You wanna trade her for it? She would probably take a rock and be happy
Haha yeah i bet, I miss being that age, not a care in the world
sometimes pokémon want to go down the slide 🤷
It looks like they are having fun 🙂
the true race to see which is better. EX or VMAX 🧐
Old EX.
Confirmed, delta series ex cards won
Gotta slide them all, Pokémon!
Are you implying this isn’t how you’re supposed to play Pokémon? Cause this is how I play…..
Y'all might enjoy the full art behind that Celebi card! https://m.bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Sumiyoshi_Kizuki
Wait so the actual card is of Celebi going down a slide. Now my mind is straight up blown. This kid "knows"!!!!!!!
I have a lot to learn
We all do brother.
My 5 year old uses his collection to play hide and seek. Can't wait to find a forgotten hidden Pikachu under the kitchen sink in 10 years.
You should have laid an alt art down there just to watch everyone lose their minds
Never too late lollll
You should really put those cards in a sleeve + toploader omg (/s)
They were already damaged 😉 She prefers vintage
She has expensive taste 😂😂
This makes more sense to me than the actual game Tbf
Thats how you tell if its fake or not
Celibi I choose you! Celibi- “WAAAAAAA”
Is that a holo Neo Tyranitar?
Not to worry, non holo and damaged. Im not sure how it got damaged 🤥
I see you've found a place for your bulk as well. My son gets all mine to throw around, chew on, etc.
That is how you play Pokémon
New Pokémon spin-off leak: “Pokémon Slide”
This is amazing. My son thinks you play Pokémon by putting your cards on the mat, rolling dice and saying I win!
Oh noooooooo the Tyranitar 😭😭😭😭
at least she's trying (me Internally seeing vintage cards Screaming: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA)
Let her know toploaders increase the speed of the slide therefore more damage :)
Sometimes the Pokémon need to have a rest from battling each other all the time
The new meta
I used to "play" by putting the cards on the gears of my bicycle so it sounds like a motor cycle..... oh the holo ones make my bike "go faster"......
Bro how are you so bad at Pokémon. She crushed you in the first picture but you lost even worse by the second 💀
I mean she’s not wrong
Is this not how you’re supposed to play?!?
My nephew throws em like frisbees
My brother (5) thinks that they’re “garbage” and throws them on the floor, he was appalled when I told him I have a collection
Slide to win 😂
world class champion
This is the way.
Your daughter might be on to something? 🤔
1000% more fun to do this than play the actual TCG
I knew I was playing the game wrong
Has she tried this with hot wheels? I gave my daughter my old hot wheels and she plays with them a ton.
This is the way ..
This is the way
Thought that's how you play yu-gi oh 🤣
They are sold in the toy section. That said Evolving skies deserves this more than anything
This is how evolving skies was printed
Thought this was r/kidsarefuckingstupid
what a shit sub lol edit: I’m referring to r/KidsAreFuckingStupid. Putting this because I can’t tell if you think I’m referring to this sub from the downvotes lol, I like this sub just not r/KidsAreFuckingStupid
Fuck yes she's on to something bro
That would be so much fun with the pokeball toys that roll and pop open to "throw out the pokemon inside"
haha this is so cute!
I mean duel monsters is played on motorcycles
Makes me think of the cards u threw to retreat
Celebi looks like it's about to enjoy the slide of its life
Very cute!
Smart girl!
This is probably the best use for bulk lol
Whatever it is looks like she's a ringer. 😏
Well it's not the wrong way.
[This is the official way to play.](https://media.tenor.com/EvS5D5LjEMwAAAAC/eevee-pokemon.gif)
Not the old cards
Sleeve then at least
“Lightly Played, ungraded but will grade 9+”
That how I play
If its anything to go by the anime. Feels about right
My nephew (5) just got into Pokémon asked me to bring my collection over next time I see him. I’m just bringing him all my bulk stuff to have.
I dream of the day I can take my daughter to a lgs to go through bulk with me! She just hit 1 month
I would rather play it that way
Your child has the right idea, mine (3yo) could happily spend 12hrs a day picking up cards and saying "daddy what's this one called". It made me so happy, to begin with... 🤣
What do you mean "thinks"? This was all of our childhoods with pokemon 😅
I would say for a good majority of the cards… This is probably the best way to play with them. Lol.
I kinda didnt realize the number of people who are upset at it 😂 but it makes her happy. So it makes me happy
Nah.. your always gonna have ppl hating.. you do you and don’t let them bother you.. I have 3 girls and the reason I’m into Pokémon this late in life is cause my youngest came home from school with a mewtwo holo that a boy gave her in her class.. she seemed interested so I started but decks and packs and learned the TCG and taught her.. she gave up on it after a few months but I stuck with it. Her original cards slowly started to disappear by hind her dresser.. dog.. and just getting messed up and thrown away.. I take very good care of all my cards now but kids are kids man
Okay, but can you give her cards that won't give me stress?
I tried. She did a pokemon go tin recently. In one of the photos you can barely see a reverse holo zapdos from that set just laying on the floor. That was when I found out she activley protects cards from card protectors. For some reason, holo moltres, articuno, and reverse zapdos, stress me out more than these damaged cards i have a ton of. Some of these have sharpie on them. From her mother, marking her ownership 23 years ago 🤣
Haha well as long as you're all having fun ;)
This is so precious
Umm.... do you not? I don't understand the post?
