  • Collapsible pinata
    Patent number: 5536194
    Abstract: A collapsible pinata having a pair of planar main panels joined by connecting side panels. The side panels are configured to fold inward between the main panels to allow the pinata to be collapsed substantially flat. In an expanded state, the side panels extend generally perpendicularly between the spaced main panels. Reinforcing flaps are provided to brace the pinata in the expanded state. The reinforcing flaps are hingedly attached to one of the main panels and are pulled outward with strings to lie against the inner surface of the side panels. The collapsible pinata is constructed of a single piece of cardboard.
