    The kids need variety in their diet. Just chocolate isn't good enough. They need items like skittles and licorice. Shame on you.

    Indeed. Can a kid get some nerds up in here?

    Should I have the kids do P90X or Insanity, to offset the calorie spike?

    .....but how will they log it?

    Man up and fill the pinata with fake blood. Then hire a clown to arrive just as the blood begins to spill, and make sure he runs in sobbing. Only then offer the kids chocolate. So they'll appreciate it.
    Put some fake intestines in with the blood as well to add to the dramatic effect. And preferably have the clown look like this:

    Just put the HRM's right in the pinata and save on the money for the chocolate.

    Haha, I wouldn't sweat it. Let this be a lesson to yourself and the other parents to teach the kids to eat the candy in moderation. We just threw away about half of the candy my son got for Halloween just because he's not that into candy and for that...I am thankful!

    Gah! Why didn't you call me?! I could have used it in the pinata!

    So we're going to do a pinata on Christmas Eve. I bought a five pound bag of assorted mini chocolate bars at Costco. There will be 9 children participating, so they will be getting about a half a pound of candy each. Well, the stronger, faster ones will get more than the slower, weaker ones. I'm feeling so GUILTY. Perhaps I should fill it with fruit, but it would get bruised and soggy and damaged. I hope the authorities don't find out about what a terrible ting I have done to the children. :sad: :sad: :sad:

    LMAO! In response to that other thread... nice!! :happy:

    ^^This. And starburst and airheads - lots of color is important.


    And Mike & Ikes... Wait, I'll be there if there are Mike & Ikes to be had! LOL :)
