Piñata

Piñata's are a celebratory icon originated from Mexico. Originally, piñatas were made of clay pots that represented a particular god. Once the piñata's were broken, what was inside and fell out represented favors presented by the gods. Piñata's now, are generally popular around children's birthdays, made of characters, and filled with candy to be shared. Once, in elementary school, my teacher taught us how to make piñata's. We used balloons, paper mache, newspapers, and tissue paper. Piñata's se muchas haces divertidas!
