Piñatas are three-in-one fun: wild excitement for the kids, entertainment for the adults who are watching, and a package for party favors.
The only negative is all that candy! Here are some non-candy filler ideas.
Non-candy treats for a piñata
Retro toys such as trolls
Pens, pencils, and pencil sharpeners
Balls, such as super bounce balls
Tattoos
Small toys such as cars
Mini flashlights
Bath bombs
String bracelets
Which would you scramble for?
I also sometimes match the treats to the piñata design. For example for a “ball” party, we had a ball piñata full of balls (golf balls, super bounce balls, etc.). For a back-to-school party, we had an apple pinata filled with apple-related treats and school supplies.
