Make a Pull String Piñata

The pull string piñata is a particularly good game idea for small kids indoor celebrations. It is a fun yet safe party game for the youngest kids who can get hurt trying to break open the piñata with a bat. Here are instructions on how to convert a normal piñata into its gentler pull string version:

1) First of all, the piñata must have a flat bottom. Cut a 3"x3"x3" flap on the bottom of piñata as close to center as possible. Perforate a small hole near the extreme of flap where it opens.

2) Pass a ribbon through flap and tie a knot from the side that will remain inside the piñata.

3) Close flap. Do not secure flap with any tape or adhesive.

4) Using scotch or masking tape attach ribbons around base of piñata. Pull the ribbon that is hanging out of trap and bring it to same level as other ribbons.

5) Spread glue over the bottom of the piñata and apply the tissue paper making sure that all ribbons are completely covered. Let dry. Your pull string piñata is ready!
