Making a Papier Mache Pinata

Virginia Glass Schlabach

In this lesson, students will learn how to make a papier mache pinata which is a common structure used to hold toys, candy and more. This is commonly used at birthday parties and holiday events within Mexico. Students can make one pinata together or they can make their own! This process takes several days but is a fun way to teach students about a different culture and how they celebrate holidays.
