Pinata

                                                    I used cereal boxes to construct
                                                    my son's Monster Truck
                                                    Pinata. I formed the shape I wanted
                                                    then taped the seams shut.

                                                     The second step in my construction
                                                     was to paper mache! Now a word to
                                                     the wise this project is extremely MESSY!!!
                                                     I had some eager little helpers while doing
                                                     this part and we had a paper mache nightmare
                                                     afterwards in my kitchen;)              
                                                   
                        
                                                
                                                   Once its dry, you fill with candy & decorate the pinata!
                                                   I used a piece of twine threaded through the boxes
                                                   to hang. I had a bunch of strong boys at this party and it took
                                                   many tries from all the children to finally knock it apart. The
                                                  Pinata was probably the biggest hit of the Monster Truck party
                                                  lol no pun intended!
