We’ve got a fun Maker Monday craft project for you this week, Kidsburgh families. This colorful “Let’s Try” DIY project comes courtesy of our friends at the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh, who have a slew of creative projects just like this on their Youtube page.

This week’s project gives your child all the steps to make a piñata from items you likely have around the house. You’ll find the instructions and materials you need listed below and you can follow along with the video to see the whole project in action. The piñata you’ll see made in the video looks like a birthday present, but you can use these steps to make a piñata in any shape you’d like.

A note to kid makers: Please work with a parent or caregiver on every project and always be very careful when using tools of any kind.
