Had I waited a few days longer, they would’ve been cheaper or I might not have found them at all. I was able to snag bags of Snickers, Skittles, Starburst, and M&M’s for 50% off. That meant lots of Easter candy clearance. This year, Easter was exactly one week before Charlie’s birthday. If your child’s birthday is anywhere near a holiday (Christmas, Easter, Halloween) that has a ton of candy, be on the lookout for candy coupons and then after-holiday clearance sales! Sure, the packages may be holiday designs, but let’s be honest: the kids just want candy! I think it’s somewhere in-between: I hate a piñata that can’t take a whack, but even when the 11 year old got ahold of it to knock it open, we still needed to tear it apart to really open it up. That could be a good thing or a bad thing. I will say this is not an easy piñata to break. We fit PLENTY of candy in this you just need to shake it around so it spreads out throughout the dragon’s body. I had read a few reviews that people said they couldn’t fit much candy in this dragon piñata, but I have no idea what they’re talking about. The Dragon Piñata from Oriental Trading was a hit, of course! The kids loved it and everyone loved watching them take a whack at it. I received this dragon piñata from Oriental Trading for the purpose of this review. So we had a piñata, a “racing game”, a decorate your own ninja headband, decorate a ninja cookie, and “Sensei Says”. When I asked him what kind of games he wanted to play at his party, he said “racing game”. Charlie is really into playing any kind of game right now.
