Happy Pi Approximation Day! 🥧 🎉 Yes, that’s a ninja holding a pie. And yes, we’re celebrating math in the most delicious way possible. 😋

Today is all about honoring the magical number Pi (π), approximately 22/7. It represents the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. Most people know it as 3.14, but did you know it’s an irrational number? That means it keeps going forever without repeating—over a trillion digits and still counting! 🤯

At Code Ninjas, we love any excuse to combine math, creativity, and a slice of fun. 🍰 ✨

🎮 We’re celebrating National Video Game Day! 🎉

Over the years, video games have evolved across decades, devices, and generations. From arcade classics to mobile hits, they’ve taken us on adventures, sparked friendships, and challenged how we think. 🕹️📱

At Code Ninjas, we love honoring that legacy by helping kids go beyond playing games—they learn how to build them. Because every great game starts with a spark of curiosity. 💡✨

What the Tech: Variables Edition

Think of variables like a labeled box. You can put stuff in, take stuff out, and reuse it later.

In code, a variable is a container that holds info. It stores whatever you need, whenever you need it - like a high score, your kid's secret ninja nickname, the weekly screen time deal you masterfully negotiated, or the massive popsicle inventory you’re managing as a backyard CEO.
