March 14th is just a few days away and we invite you to get the celebration started with us this year by making projects related to Pi! Looking for ideas to get started? - Create a Pi related game where each level unlocks new digits of Pi. - Make an animation of you or someone else happily celebrating Pi day! - Create a Pi(e) in the face game! - Make an animated short of the “Great Pi(e) Bake Off”, a baking competition show. - Create a game where you must catch falling digits of Pi in the correct order. - Make a project that teaches something interesting about Pi. - Create a musical project where beats follow the sequence of Pi digits. - Make a pi(e) bakery project where users can order or decorate their own baked goods. - Design interactive artwork that includes the number 3, 1, and 4 or the symbol π. - Create a “Pi Fashion Show” featuring circle-inspired or pi(e)-related outfits.
