Create your own Easter Egg Piñata:
For some real Easter FUN, make your own egg-shaped pinata! Hang it from a tree and watch your friends try to knock it down. This project is especially FUN because once you finish making it, you can eat what’s inside! |
|
Steps: |
 |
Cover the floor with newspaper around the area where you will be working. |
|
Mix the flour into the water. |
|
Blow the balloon up to the size you want. |
|
Cut out strips of the tissue paper and dip into paste. |
|
Stick 3 layers of tissue paper onto balloon to act as a base for your piñata. (do not cover the very bottom of balloon where the knot is). |
|
Once the balloon has completely dried (overnight), add stickers, glitter and tissue paper shapes to the balloon to make your design. |
|
Decorate both sides and top of the balloon (do not decorate the very bottom of balloon where the knot is). |
|
Once your decorations are dried, pop the knotted part of the balloon. |
|
Your Easter Egg piñata should be the shell of the balloon. |
|
Fill the Egg with candy and toys. |
|
Apply a few dipped strips of tissue paper to cover the hole and poke 2 small holes through the bottom of piñata and tie ribbon through. |
|
Tie the ribbon to make a loop. |
|
Hang the balloon from the ceiling or a tree limb with the ribbon and have fun smacking it with a stick to burst the candy and toys out. |
