Pinatas - The Crossword Puzzle, or Crusi
Hullian and his mam would take undecorated, small, five star pinatas for children to decorate. They were the perfect size for kids, only about seven inches big. Hullian would set out the glue, colored tissue, paper and other materials. Grama was a game for the kids to learn about the history of the pinata.

He cared more about sharing the custom of pinatas than earning money.
