Just as Christmas has developed from a religious observance into a largely secular holiday in some circles, pinatas evolved from religious symbols into the objects of a fun party activity. Incorporate Christmas themes into the selection and destruction of your pinata. Having a Christmas pinata is a great way to honor a Spanish tradition and give even more presents to your guests.
Christmas is not a typical time for piñata, but the holiday festivities could always use a group activity involving candy, toys and other goodies. Use all the extra candy canes and Christmas treats as a free-for-fall grab fest by inserting them into a festive piñata. Christmas themed piñatas are easy to make at home, and they can both be created with the whole family with papier maché, a few craft supplies, and some paint. One of easiest piñatas to make for Christmas is the jolly man himself, Santa Claus.
