Party games
DIY CoderDojo Cookie cutters
Make your own CoderDojo baked goods. With every birthday pack Dojos get three star cookie cutters but you can make your own using a knife to cut out star shapes, and a glass or cup to make circle's for CoderDojo ying-yang cookies!
Use food colour and plain icing, or ready coloured icing to colour your circles. A low cost alternative is using white cooking chocolate and dark cooking chocolate instead. This can be melted in a bowl over hot water and spooned into position.
Marzipan is a great way to utilise your star templates too! Use jam or melted chocolate to stick your stars in place.
Balloons
Get some plain balloons and use them to encourage Ninjas to share their highlights from the year. Write a question on each balloon, such as "what have you learned to make at your Dojo this year?". Then pass the balloons around, letting Ninjas write their answers on each.
