Perky Paper Plate Pig

Why

Oink! Oink! Oink! Remember your trip to a farm—or a book or favorite nursery rhyme—with your own Perky Pig!


Steps

1. Use your imagination when you make this fun and easy pig! Decorate a large paper plate with Crayola Pip-Squeaks™ Markers to make your pig’s body.

2. Decorate a small paper plate to look like its head. Add eyes and a snout. Tear a small paper plate into triangles for ears. Color the inside of each ear a darker color. Tear another small paper plate for legs and a tail.

3. Attach the pieces with Crayola School Glue. Air-dry the glue before you play with your Perky Paper Plate Pig.

Interesting Info

No sweat! Pigs have no sweat glands, which is why they wallow in water or mud to keep cool.
