Make a Piņata |
You can buy a piņata
from a Latino or party supply store in your town, but it's easy (if a
little messy) to make your own. Besides, kids tend to enjoy making piņatas
as well as breaking them. We'll give you the basics and a recipe for the
popular star-shaped piņata.

those do-it-yourself shows on TV, come on in! We've got all kinds of
recipes, formulas, craft projects and ideas that you can make
yourself.

crafts activity? To download a dinosaur, use whatever way works best for

on the print icon or click your cursor on top of the image and scroll to
the "save this image" command, then you can print it out whenever you
want.

Cooking and cleaning
were essential skills adopted by the liberated male of the 70's. More than
a decade later, it is harder than ever to prove ourselves as strong yet
sensitive, self-assertive yet self-sufficient. But here is your big
chance! Borrow your mother's old sewing machine and buy 3 feet of fabric
that will distinguish you from your dreary peers, whose ties look like
relics from a decade of Christmas sales past. Then follow these
instructions, written by a guy who once threw away a shirt just because it
was a button short.
