Is pinatas a culture or custom in Mexico?

Pinatas are both a culture and a custom in Mexico. They are a traditional part of Mexican culture, and are often used in celebrations such as birthdays, holidays, and other special events. Pinatas are typically made of papier-mâché or cardboard, and are filled with candy and other treats. Children, and sometimes adults, take turns hitting the piñata with a stick until it breaks open and the treats spill out. Pinatas are also often used as decorations, and can be found hanging in homes, schools, and other public places in Mexico.
