What you will need
- Pinata
- Pinata fillers – as the kids will already get lots of candy, you can substitute with alternative fillers e.g. mini games, figures, lego, ping ping pong balls, yo-yo etc. Make sure you have enough for all players and something for boys and girls.
- Piñata stick
- Blindfold
How to play
- Tie the favour filled pinata to a tree branch or clothes line.
- Select the first player from the group.
- When the player is selected, blindfold them and spin them around a few times so they are a little disorientated.
- Give the player the pinata stick, point them in the right direction and allow them take three ‘swings’.
- As the person is taking their swings at the pinata, somebody should be raising and lowering the pinata out of their way.
- After three swings, whether that player has hit the pinata or not, the next player is select.
- Repeat with all players until the pinata is smashed open – as soon as the favours fall out, all the players can gather the contents.
