Far way in the land of Heidi, Swiss children have a similar birthday tradition, sort of. Instead of exploding a piñata with sheer human force, Swiss kids get to light an indoor explosive just powerful enough to pop the lid off of a cardboard cylinder that spews party favors like balloons, hats, and mini games. (Sadly, no candy.)
This genius of a party novelty is known as the Tischbombe. That's right, it's a table bomb, specifically designed for indoor use. No need for the complications involved with piñata use: a blindfold, a baseball bat, and a nearby tree. Simply place the Bombe on a non-flammable surface, hand your kid a match, and light 'er up! (We found these at Migros.)
