Flip Cards is a Bonus Challenge in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island and Yoshi's Island DS. It is the mini-game of World 1 and is said to be the simplest of all the mini-games in the Yoshi's Island game. In the mini-game, there are nine cards known as Flip Cards facing down. The player can choose which one they want to flip over, and when the player chooses which one they want to flip, Yoshi will toss a Yoshi Egg at the card and flip it over.

The cards each have a picture of something and each picture does something different. If Yoshi gets a Toady, then nothing will happen. If the Yoshi gets an item, such as a star or watermelon, the Yoshi will receive that item (This however only happens in Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island). In Yoshi's Island DS, if the player gets one of the babies in the game, then the player will get a 1-up. However getting a Kamek ends the game. However, in Yoshi's Island DS, you couldn't get any items, and the panels were replaced by Flowers and heads of the Babies.

After one card is flipped over, Yoshi can continue flipping cards and getting the items/1-ups until either Yoshi gets a Kamek or he has already flipped all the cards over without getting a Kamek.
