8 Creative Ways to Make a Piñata

creative pinatas

Fashioned from a long tradition the Piñata has evolved since they were first used by the Aztec Indians in their celebrations to their gods.  The festive piñata continues to enchant parties throughout the world.

This is one of the many songs that are traditionally sang when hitting the piñata:

Dale, dale, dale, no perdas el tino,
porque si lo perdes, pierdes el camino. ”

Whether you’re celebrating Cinco de Mayo or not, these Piñata ideas are so fun and festive and add a little flair to your party or gathering.

What I love about traditions is they remind us that we are a part of something bigger than ourselves and that we are a part of a multicultural world. The tradition of the Piñata can be transformed to fit our style, gathering and even another culture.
