Postal Service on Friday rolled out its latest special edition postage stamps, paying homage to a tradition with global roots that has evolved over centuries to become a universal symbol of celebration. It was through dance, music and the arts — including the making of piñatas — that biblical stories were spread throughout the New World. "Nativity scenes, piñatas, posadas — all those things really worked well. They bring it with them and so the piñata is no different,” he said. “In the end, I feel that there must be a connection and there must be some sort of mutual understanding,” he said.
