Water Pinata Birthday Activity
by Stephanie P.
(Neosho, MO)
On the hottest days of summer, nothing beats a homemade pinata full of cold water. This candy-free version is a dentist's dream. You'll need a medium-sized trash bag, water, rope, bandanna or scarf, and a broom. Fill the trash bag with one to two gallons of cold water and knot the top of the bag. Tie one end of the rope tightly beneath the knot. Toss the free end of the rope over a tree branch and either tie it securely or have the adult stand by to raise and lower the water pinata. To play, each child takes a turn being blindfolded, getting spun around three times, and then taking three whacks at the pinata with the broom. The winner is the one who manages to break the bag and unleash the tidal wave. (You can also put little water presents in the water trash bag- as in squirt guns, sunglasses, water goggles etc.)
