The Pinata Store - Authentic Mexican Party Pinatas

Description

"Made to be broken, these exotic creations are nevertheless fashioned with enormous care. Ships, stars, flowers, fish, birds and animals are just some of the fanciful shapes that are modeled out of paper and cardboard to hold clay pots packed to the brim with sweets, fruit, nuts and small toys. One by one the children are blindfolded. Stick in hand, they lash out at the piñata as it swings dizzily from the branches of a tree, high above their heads. Often a parent joins in the fun, pulling the rope to raise and lower the piñata. The excitement builds up until a sudden crash is heard. The pot, broken at last, pours out its tempting contents while the contestants, screaming and laughing, dive forward in pursuit of treasures."

Whether you are hosting an adult or juvenile party, the piñata game is bound to be the highlight of the party. Traditionally, the piñata game is played as the "main feature" of a party. First of all make sure you have everything you'll need to play the game, such as a rope or drying line cord, a place from where you're going to hang the piñata (this may be a tree branch, a basketball hoop, two adults holding ends of a rope with a piñata hanging in middle, etc.), piñata party stuffers such as candy, small piñata favors and large confetti, a piñata buster stick and blindfolds.

Fill the piñata with the goodies before guest arrive at the party, so that they won't know what's inside. Before the party you may use the piñata as a centerpiece, then take the piñata and hang it form a designated place in your yard. Form all the children in a line, starting with the smallest one all the way to the tallest one. If a child is very young, you won't need to blindfold him/her. Traditionally, children over 3 years old are blindfolded, then spun around a few times, provided with the piñata buster stick and let loose to hit the piñata. For safety's sake, please make sure that while a child is hitting the piñata all other children are kept away (a 12' radius is recommended) and that the child has completely ceased to hit the piñata before you allow the other children to go grab the goodies spilled on floor. Allow each child to hit the piñata at least a couple of times before you move on to the next child. To make the game more fun, the piñata must be swung up and down, and guests must be encouraged to misdirect the piñata hitter (if the piñata is down, tell the hitter the piñata is up, etc.). You may also want to throw candy with your hands while the piñata is being hit. Make sure that all children have gotten some candy at the end of the game.
