 How to Play the Pinata Party Game

 THE PINATA GAME MUST ALWAYS BE PLAYED UNDER ADULT SUPERVISION!

Step by Step Instructions:
Whether you are hosting an adult or kids indoor or outdoor party, the pinata party game is bound to be the highlight of the party. It's a great birthday party game. Furthermore, it's a great party game idea for any other occasion as well. Traditionally, the pinata party game is the "main feature" of a kid's outdoor birthday party. Normally, the traditional pinata game as described below is played as an outdoor party game. The exception is when the party area is a large garage or other indoor facility of appropriate size.  

1. First, make sure you have everything needed to play the party game, such as a rope, a place from where you're going to suspend the pinata (such as a tree branch or two adults holding ends of a rope with a pinata hanging in the middle, etc.), sweets and/or toy fillers (can include large confetti), a pinata buster stick and blindfolds for the participants.

2. Fill the pinata with the fillers before guests arrive at the party, so that they won't know what surprises are inside.

3. Before the party game commences, you may use the pinata as a festive centerpiece. When you’re ready to begin the party game, take the pinata and hang it from the designated place in the party game area.

4. Organise the kids in a line, starting with the smallest one all the way to the tallest one. If the boy or girl is very young, they won't require a blindfold. Traditionally, children over 3 years old are blindfolded, then spun around a few times, provided with the pinata buster stick and let loose to play the party game by hitting the pinata.

5. For safety's sake, while a child is hitting the pinata during the game, all other children must be kept away (a minimum 15' radius is recommended) from the hitter. Furthermore, the child should have completely ceased to hit the pinata before you allow the other children to go grab the goodies spilled on floor. This safety instruction is of utmost importance and cannot be emphasised enough.

6. Allow each child to hit the pinata at least a couple of times before you move on to the next child.
To make the pinata party game even more fun, the pinata may be swung up and down, and guests may be encouraged to misdirect the pinata hitter (if the pinata is down, tell the hitter the pinata is up, etc).
You may also want to throw sweets with your hands while the pinata is being hit.

In conclusion, pinatas are the most obvious and fun birthday party game idea that is available today. The party game is equally fun for boys and girls. When properly executed, this outdoor or indoor birthday party game idea will absolutely be the highlight of the party and memories of the game will bring many smiles for both children and adults

La piñata est un jeu très amusant pour un anniversaire et laisse un souvenir mémorable aux enfants. Quelques explications :
Accrochez la piñata en hauteur. Les enfants se placent en file indienne face à la piñata. Un par un, ils vont frapper avec un bâton sur la piñata jusqu'à que la piñata craque et dévoile aux enfants les surprises qu'elle contient ( jouet en plastique, bonbons, confettis,...). Pour mesure de sécurité, ce jeu doit se dérouler sous la surveillance d'un adulte.
