ClassX Video Lessons Grade Grade 2 How To Make A Piñata | Piñata Party Book Reading for Kids | Circle Time with Khan Academy Kids
Hello, friends! Today, we’re going to have a super fun pinata party. I’m Caroline from the Khan Academy Kids team, and this is my friend Sophie. Are you ready to join us?
Our story today is about Ollo and Sandy, who are getting ready for a party. They decide to make a pinata. Here’s how they do it:
Now, it’s time to hang the pinata and start the party!
Ollo and Sandy invite their friends to try and break the pinata. They use a blindfold and a broomstick to make it more challenging. Everyone takes turns, but it’s not easy! Finally, Peck swings the broom and breaks the pinata, sending treats flying everywhere. Everyone is so happy!
During the party, we learn some new words that start with the sounds “brr” and “grr.” Here are a few:
Our friends, teacher Emily, Sadie, and Jager, show us how to make a real pinata. Here’s what you need:
Mix the glue and water, dip the paper strips in the mixture, and cover the balloon. Once it’s dry, pop the balloon and decorate your pinata. Fill it with treats and toys, and it’s ready to hang!
You can put all sorts of fun things inside a pinata, like candies, small toys, stickers, or even fruits like apples and pears. Use your imagination!
We hope you enjoyed our pinata party. Maybe you can have your own party at home with your family. If you can’t make a pinata today, you can still collect fun things that might go inside one someday. Thanks for joining us, and see you next time!
Create Your Own Mini Pinata: Gather some small balloons, newspaper strips, glue, and paint. Follow the steps from the article to make a mini pinata. Once it’s dry, decorate it with your favorite colors and fill it with small treats or toys. Share your creation with your family and explain how you made it!
Sound Hunt: Go on a sound hunt around your house or classroom to find objects that start with the “brr” and “grr” sounds. Make a list of the items you find, like “brush” or “grass.” Share your list with a friend and see if they can find more words with the same sounds.
Design a Pinata Party Plan: Imagine you are planning your own pinata party. Draw a picture of what your party would look like. Think about what kind of pinata you would make, what treats you would put inside, and what games you would play. Share your party plan with your family or friends and ask them what they would add to make it even more fun!
