Tie a rope to the pinata's hanger. Throw the other end of the rope over a branch and hold it in your hand. Make the pinata move by pulling on the rope. It is recommended that for breaking the pinata, you use a pinata buster or a whiffle bat. It is not recommended to use a metal or wooden bat. The child swinging at the pinata may be blindfolded. It is recommended to start with the smallest child and go up. Keep the other children away from the pinata and the child who is swinging at the pinata. Give each child three to five swings at the pinata, starting with the smallest child, to ensure that each child has an opportunity to swing at the pinata. Have fun! When the pinata bursts open, make sure the child with the buster stops swinging before the other kids try to grab the candy. To ensure that each child gets candy, some parents throw out additional candy or provide each child with a goody bag.
