OP is hosting a party for six year olds. For six year olds and older blindfolded is better. The pinata won't last more than a few kids if they are able to see it.

Your rule is good for toddlers and preschoolers, but not school aged kids.

At the party we went to for 6 year old girls, we did one round of blindfolds and then quickly went to no blindfolds -- both for personal safety and the fact that it would probably have taken hours for the pinata to break if they could not see it. So I would bring a blindfold and see how it goes.

Have another adult keep the kids back from the swinging kid!!

How many kids? With a lot, with blindfolds, it will take forever, and the kids get really bored.
