We used to make them for international events (eg Thinking Day) at Guides - basically, a papier mache shape (can't remember if that's spelt right and the spell checker doesn't like this version!) moulded over a balloon, brightly painted, which is filled with sweets and suspended from something high up (or convenient sky-hook!). Children (usually) are then encouraged to hit the Pi�ata with sticks in order to break it, and release the sweets. Mayhem ensues.... -- Jane Partridge -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
