• 

  Step 1

  Blow up a balloon to the size that you would like your pinata to be.

• 

  Step 2

  Cut strips of newspaper, coat them in PVA glue and then stick them to the balloon.

• 

  Step 3

  When you have covered the entire balloon, let it dry and then repeat with 4 more layers.

• 

  Step 4

  When the newspaper is all dry, start painting the balloon. Paint with two layers of paint and leave to dry.

• 

  Step 5

  Cut a circle out of the top for the lid, this should pop the balloon so remove the popped balloon.

• 

  Step 6

  Pierce two holes on either side of the circle hole and tie a length of string between the hole.

• 

  Step 7

  Wrap up sweets and treat in little parcels and pop them inside the pinata.

• 

  Step 8

  Place the lid back on, decorate and hang up the pinata somewhere away from anything breakable. Blindfold a friend, spin them round, give them a stick and watch as they try to break the pinata.

we made these a couple years ago, but instead of using PVA glue, we used paper mache!
