And don’t worry, you won’t need a Poké ball to catch your Pikachu. Just gather a few simple supplies to make this cute free printable Pokemon Valentine.

Plus, people of all ages will love receiving this fun card – they don’t even need to be a Pokemon lover to appreciate the work your child put into making it!

Supplies

• Colored cardstock or construction paper
• White card stock
• Scissors
• Glue stick
• Black marker
• Standard hole punch (optional)
• Pikachu craft template (click the “click here to get this freebie” image at the end to open the form)

Directions

Start by downloading the Pikachu template and printing it out. Once you have the template printed, gather the materials needed for this fun activity. Get those scissors ready, and let’s help the kids bring this Pikachu to life!

Let’s take a piece of yellow card stock. Together with your child, fold it in half “hot dog” style, which means you fold it lengthwise. Now, grab that Pikachu head and place it on the folded yellow paper. Trace around it and cut the piece out.

Your kids can create Pikachu’s ears by gluing the black ear tip to the top of his yellow ears, and then carefully cutting off any excess paper. Once the ears look perfect, attach them to the back side of the card.

Now for some personality! Let’s glue the heart eyes towards the tops of the card front. Pikachu’s eyes are windows to his electrifying soul. To add a sparkle to his eyes, use scissors or a hole punch to create two circles from white card stock and glue them along the left side of each heart. You can also use a white out pen to draw the spots on his eyes.

Encourage your kids to make Pikachu’s mouth by gluing the pink tongue to the bottom of the dark red mouth, and then trimming off any excess. Once done, they can glue the finished mouth at the bottom of the card front, in between the eyes.

Place a red cheek on either side of the mouth and secure them with glue.

Then use the black marker to delicately draw a tiny black nose above his mouth.

As the grand finale, encourage your kids to open up the card and write a fun message to someone special. Whether it’s a friend, a family member, or a fellow Pokémon fan, this personalized touch will make their Pikachu card truly heartwarming!

Pikachu Valentine’s Day Card Notes

We created this card as a Valentine version for Valentine’s Day, but you could just as easily use it for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, or any other special day you can think of!

If you don’t want the cute little heart eyes, you can quickly swap them out for Pikachu’s standard black eyes. Simply cut out a small circle from black cardstock and glue a smaller white circle to the top. Now you and your little Pokemon trainer can use this card idea whenever you want!

We also want to remind you that if you don’t need a folded Pokemon Valentine card, then you can just make this a Pikachu craft. Instead of tracing Pikachu’s head on a folded piece of paper, just trace it on a flat one. You could even add a craft or lollipop stick to the bottom and make it into a fun puppet. How easy peasy is this Pokemon craft?!
