Large paper shopping bag
Wrapped candy
Newspaper
Red and green tissue paper
White glitter
Tape
Scissors
Glue
Stick, baseball bat or broom
Fill the shopping bag lightly with crumpled newspaper.
Add the wrapped candy along with the newspaper. Close
the bag and tape.
Cut tissue paper into 3-inch strips. Fringe the strips
by cutting along the edge, being careful not to cut
all the way through. Glue the strips around the bag.
Start at the bottom or at one side, overlapping the
tissue paper. Decorate the piņata to look like a Christmas
ornament, Santa Claus, donkey or snowman.
Hang the piņata. Blindfold one person at a time,
aim him or her in the direction of the piņata. Make
sure that everyone is clear of the stick. Make sure
that everyone stands clear so that they don't get
hit. Make sure everyone shares the candy when the
piņata is broken.
