Games and Activities
When the guests arrive, have them check in to the Ninja Training Camp and provide them with gear to prepare for their training. Give them dog tags, temporary tattoos, white and black face paint, a head bandanna, and any other items to get them into the party theme.
Give your guests the option to be Snake Eyes or Storm Shadow during the party. They can create a special name badge to wear during the party so everyone remembers who is who.
Set up an obstacle course for ninja training: have the children climb through tires, balance themselves on a beam, crawl on the ground from one area to another, swing on a rope, do exercises, etc. Whatever you have around your home will work well. Perhaps have the kids come up with new obstacles together and try them out too.
As a further exercise in ninja training, fill black and white balloons with water, and call these “balloon ninjas.” Have the kids toss their water balloons back and forth without breaking them as an additional challenge. Later on, create a ninja field in your yard, where the kids must cross without being hit by a water balloon that the other kids are throwing at one another. Whoever isn’t hit wins the game.
Play “Wrap Snake Eyes or Storm Shadow”: Divide the kids into two teams and designate one person on each team to be one of the characters who is wrapped up by the other team members with toilet paper. See which team wraps their soldier fastest!
Hold a scavenger hunt for the kids to find small ninja stars that you have hidden around the party area.
As a party craft and activity, have the kids create ninja swords from foam and then have a battle using their foam swords just as Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow battle in the movie. It should be fun and safe at the same time.
Play a game of ultimate Lazer Tag
