Three Little Pigs Made Out of Terra Cotta Pots
Hi parents of awesomely-creative-kids! {can I say you rock?!} Did you happen to catch a glimpse at our Paper Plate Wolf kid craft that I shared yesterday? Well – that particular craft was super fun and went perfectly along with the classic story Little Red Riding Hood.
But the fun doesn’t stop there! We are continuing on with the theme of classic children’s stories kid crafts, by giving the spotlight to those adorable Three Little Pigs today. Tied together with yesterday’s wolf craft and you are SURE to have a squealing good afternoon crafting & enjoying story time together!
Not only is our Terra Cotta Pot Three Little Pigs craft idea is super easy and fun for all ages BUT the finished pieces also make for great decor in the garden or even your house! You can even change up some of the supplies {swapping out Styrofoam cups instead of Terra Cotta pots} to really make it your own.
So what are you waiting for? I know you are squealing in excitement to make these. Grab those craft supplies and get to work! You can find ALL the details and supply list in the full pink piggie craft tutorial below!
