Unleash your inner ninja and celebrate International Ninja Day with awesome ninja-themed activities, recipes, and crafts!
Get ready to celebrate International Ninja Day on Dec. 5! This day has been around since the early 2000s and is a great opportunity to honor the brave warriors that have been protecting us for centuries. The ninja originated in Japan during the 15th century, with their signature black attire, weapons, and stealth tactics becoming legendary over time. It's a day to remember all of those who have come before us and how lucky we are to live in an age where ninjas don't exist (in real life)!
Take the time to learn some of the skills and techniques used by ninja warriors. This will likely require you to find a martial arts school that specializes in ninjutsu.
Gather up your friends and family and watch a classic ninja film. Pick from movies like Enter the Ninja, The Last Ninja, or even Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
The classic game of tag gets an upgrade when you play it as ninjas! Get some friends together and choose one person to be “it” first. Make sure everyone is wearing comfortable clothing so they can move easily.
Gather up your supplies and get ready to craft your own ninja costume. You’ll need black clothes, face paint, and some accessories to create the perfect look.
Invite your friends over for a real ninja party! Set up plenty of snacks, decorations and activities that are inspired by the art of ninjutsu. Don’t forget to set up a photo booth with props like swords and masks.
Let's face it - ninjas are just plain awesome. They have been a staple of popular culture for decades, from movies and video games to television shows and comic books. It's no wonder they still capture our imaginations today!
One of the most appealing aspects of ninja culture is their stealthy tactics and ability to sneak around undetected. We can all appreciate the ninja's commitment to covert operations, and take inspiration from their talents in blending into the environment.
By practicing martial arts like ninjutsu, we get to keep our bodies active and fit while also having fun. Plus, it teaches basic self defense skills that can help protect us if ever needed. Who said exercise had to be boring?
