When my kids were little they loved piñatas. I developed "Full Contact Piñata" in an effort to ramp up the fun and give the piñata a chance to fight back.
In this video the piñata is filled with oranges and apples and reinforced with clear packaging tape. I built a device to help me get the piñata moving fast.
Sometimes I have big birthday parties and I'll setup the Full Contact Pinata. My friends love it.
