What's In This Picture
In the center of the page, a large donkey piñata stands ready for the fiesta. It features many rows of fringed paper that you can color in alternating shades. To the side, you will find two sombreros with intricate patterns around their brims and a pair of maracas decorated with simple stripes.
The background is filled with a shower of confetti, stars, and circles that add movement to the air. High above, a friendly sun with a face beams down next to fluffy clouds. Every corner of this page has something small to discover, from the texture of the piñata's ears to the patterns on the party hats.
Coloring Tips
Because this is a piñata, you can use a different color for every single layer of its coat. Bright pinks, lime greens, and vibrant oranges work wonderfully to capture the festive spirit. For the sombreros, try using contrasting colors like yellow and purple to make the patterns stand out.
The sun looks great in a warm golden yellow, while the clouds can be left white or given a light blue shadow. Since there is a lot of confetti, you might want to use fine-tipped markers or sharp colored pencils to give each little shape its own unique hue. This keeps the whole scene looking busy and exciting.

Piñatas have been part of celebrations for hundreds of years. While they are very popular in Mexico today, the idea might have actually started in China. Traditionally, they were filled with fruits, nuts, and candies to reward people during special festivals.
Try This!
