Theme packs / Ninja

Ninja birthday party ideas for a small indoor space

Quiet, fast and competitive. A ninja party is the rare theme that suits a flat.

The Ninja pack is $9 on its own, and one theme pack is already included with the Box.

The plan

Two hours of ninja party

Food

  • Rice ball snacks, or just rice crackers in bowls with chopsticks nobody will use.
  • "Throwing star" sandwiches cut with a star cutter.
  • A black-frosted cake, which looks dramatic and hides every mistake.

Decorations

  • Black and red only. Two colours, and it looks designed.
  • Headbands at the door, tied on by an adult, which becomes the party photo.
  • Crepe paper strung across the hallway as lasers to duck under.

One thing that isn’t a screen

A silent-walking challenge down the hall. It is genuinely funny and it costs nothing.

What usually goes wrong

Ninja parties invite play-fighting. Give the competition a scoreboard early, before it finds its own outlet.

A running order that works

  1. 0:00–0:20

    Arrival

    Guests trickle in over twenty minutes. Have the on-arrival activity out and the TV showing the attract screen.

  2. 0:20–0:45

    The activity

    One thing off the screen, with a clear end. Twenty-five minutes is the ceiling.

  3. 0:45–1:00

    Cake

    Sing, cut, hand it out. Do not do this at the start; sugar first is a mistake you make once.

  4. 1:00–1:40

    The tournament

    Five games on the TV, four kids at a time, names entered once. This is the loudest and easiest forty minutes of the party.

  5. 1:40–2:00

    Wind down

    Free play on the console, party bags by the door, parents arriving. The screen keeps everyone in one room while you hand out bags.

The arcade

All 38 games, in Ninja colours

A theme pack is a full reskin — art and palette — over mechanics that already work. These four suit a ninja party particularly well.
