How to Make a Pinata

Want to know how to make a Pinata?

As games for childrens birthday parties go, Pinatas are a standard grand finale for kids' birthday party entertainment.

Whether you buy your pinata or decide to make your own, you're at the right place.

If you've got the space, let children swing wildly at a suspended object!

For step-by-step instructions and photos to make a pinata, get a copy of our Free Party Tools Ebook.

When you've made your Pinata, it's time to play the game!

Hang the pinata securely. Each player gets a chance to break the pinata.

Each player gets 2 or 3 hits to break the pinata. When the pinata breaks, the children each get a portion of the sweets (or goodies!). If you like, give each child a small bag to hold their goodies.

Tip: Have a reserve bag of candy to make sure little ones don’t miss out.

Caution: Adult supervision is necessary to keep children a safe distance from the player swinging at the pinata.

If making your own pinata seems too hard, it's okay to buy your Pinata. Try Birthday in a Box - they have a great selection of pinatas to choose from.
