kara i have a bta mw howl with . 078 fv <| sep |> Hey I actually used to play Pokemon for funcompetitively when I was in kindergartenfourth grade . If you can , I would encourage you to buy your son a theme deck and also buy one for yourself . It might set you back about $ 20 if you can find a few on Ebay . I learned how to play the game with my dad in first grade , and we had fun every day playing . I feel like this way , you can spend some awesome time with your son , as well as seem pretty damn cool to him and his friends . Even if he ends up not being interested in actually playingcollecting after a bit , he will have a few cards for school . But hey ! If he does get into it , you guys have an awesome game to play together . Good luck man
