Tissue Paper & Paper Plate Pig - Kid Craft Idea

Paper Plate Pink Piggie

Everyone knows the story of “The Three Little Pigs.” Right? It’s one of those classics that pretty much everyone knows.

On that note, it’s actually one of our current favorites in my house, along with counting toes as piggies and singing Old McDonald on the top of my lungs. I always get tons of giggles after my performance and few oinks out of it too. I’m taking it all as encouragement to take my show on the road. HA! 😉

Although today’s toddler friendly pig kid craft idea has nothing to do with any particular pig story per say {I know I ramble sometimes!} it does go with the theme of pigs. You easily could tie it into the story of the Three Little Pigs, Olivia, Miss Piggy or any other pig themed books you might have on hand.

In fact, before I wrote this post, I searched on Amazon for book examples and there were a ton! This gives you an arrangement of ways to tie this tutorial into story time and craft time, at the same time.

So enough rambling from me – below is the FULL tutorial on this Paper Plate Piggy kid craft idea if you would like to recreate it with your child today. I sure hope you at least give it a try!

Happy crafting, my friends! Please don’t forget to share pictures of your finished tissue paper and paper plate pig creations with us on our Facebook page afterwards, so we can give you a virtual high five from a far! I can’t wait to see your piggy friends in action!#gluedtomycrafts

Paper Plate Piggy {Kid Craft}

This easy pig craft is perfect for kids of all ages! All you need is a few simple supplies and you can be on your way to creating a fun paper plate pig art project idea in no time!

Craft Supplies:

  • Large Paper Plate
  • Pink Tissue Paper
  • White School Glue
  • Black Construction Paper
  • Pink Construction Paper
  • Craft Scissors
  • Hand-Held Stapler

Directions:

  • First you will want to cut/tear your pink tissue paper into small pieces.
  • Next spread a generous amount of glue all over the large paper plate. Have your child completely cover the plate with the tissue paper. This is your piggy’s face.
  • While your child is covering their paper plate with tissue paper, cut out some ears, eyes and large snout for the piggy, from your construction paper.
  • To finish off the Paper Plate Pig kid craft, simply staple/glue the construction paper piece to the tissue paper covered plate.
  • Then set it all aside, to let it dry completely.
  • Display proudly for ALL to see!
  • Once it’s dry, it’s time to assemble. Stack your items in this order – big plate on bottom, little plate in middle and cup on top. Add glue to each piece so it stays together.

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
