When planning a youngsters’s party, remember the key to a successful one is for the kids to have a nice time, fun, fun! And what interprets fun better than playing party games and contests. One unique and delightful game that you can never go wrong with is the pinata! Not only does a pinata make a great party decoration, it is great entertainment too. The pinata game is a competition that simply works by first securing a pinata from the ceiling. Then, each kid is given a chance to break the pinata bank with a strong stick. For the joys of it, the kid is blindfolded and is made to turn around 2 or three times and then positioned in the direction of the pinata.

The thrill incorporates expectation on who gets to smash the pinata and release all of the goodies within. Pinatas can come in many shapes and sizes. The most simple form might be in a kind of a clay pot with candies inside but more frequently than always, we look for something fancier, the type that would indulge and pleasure the kid in each one of us. It’s best then that you find one that relates with your party theme. There are a superabundance of providers offering to make customized pinatas that suit your party wish. The project may be sloppy and need your time but then again, it might be an even chance to work with and have a bond with your youngsters before the party. Making a pinata is reasonably simple and you don’t need to spend too much on supplies either. You may fundamentally need a pinata pattern, an inflated balloon, old papers, scissors, glue, sticky tape, cardboard, tissue papers, strings and crayons. Don’t forget the goodies that you are going to fill the pinata with.

Think candies, chocolates, mini toys and even coins or tiny party favors. Get the inflated balloon and cover it with Paper Mache. Paper Mache can be manufactured by first mixing glue to water. Then dip the papers, which should have been cut and torn in strips measuring six inches tall and one inch in width, in the mix. Layer the paper strips on the balloon covering it but remember to leave a little space for your opening.

Let the first layer dry before setting in a second one. When dry, pop up the balloon and take it out. This may leave a hole on the space that you did not cover with mache. Cut a card in the shape of your hole and use to cover it. Seal with the sticky tape and lay layers of paper mache on it then let dry. Make holes on the side and slide in the strings to hold the pinata.

Paint your pinatas in different colors with crayons and voila, you’re prepared for your party!

If this sounds like too much hard work for you go to your nearest parties supplies shop and get one ready to go.
