Make a Piñata

  •  The process will may take more than one day but it is a lot of fun! Start with a big balloon, cover it in newspaper strips and use a water and flour paste to make sure the newspaper strips stick to it. Leave balloon to dry overnight. You may need to repeat this process a few times to get a really sturdy piñata going. Then it will be time to paint. This is the fun part, you can either paint it one color or really decorate the piñata. You can add confetti or glitter (could be messy). Once the paint has completely dried you will have to make two holes on the sides of the piñata so that you can hang it up with a string. Finally add a bigger hole to the top and add candy. After all that work you may be inclined to keep the piñata as a decoration instead of destroying it, but I’ll leave that decision to you! For detailed instructions visit Kinderart.com.
