[Michlib-l] Pokemon Club Suggestions

[Anna Hinkley]

We throw an occasional Pokemon Party, which always include throwing games
(i.e. Can you catch a Lapras? featured throwing balls into buckets of
water) and some kind of themed craft (ex: Make your own Pokeball). Of note
are the printable activities available through the official website:
https://www.pokemon.com/us/play-pokemon/printable-activities

Have fun!
Anna
