Kids Club Pig Contest!
Materials Required:
- Empty rectangular Kleenex box
- Two Toilet paper rolls
- Pink paint
- Construction Paper or gift wrap
- One cotton ball
- Sturdy paper (can past two pieces of paper together)
- Something to color with
- Scissors
- Glue
- Cotton ball
Instructions:
Feet
- cut each toilet paper roll in half so you have four short tubes (may require adult assistance)
- Paint the tubes pink or wrap in pink paper
- Set aside to dry
Body
- Wrap the Kleenex box with your construction paper or gift wrap (you need to cover the top and all the sides)
Head
- Cut out the template from the Winnipeg Free Press
- Colour the body parts
- Glue the template to thick paper or cardboard if you want to make the template pieces sturdier
- Cut out the template pieces
- Glue the cotton ball to the snout (nose) and to the head. The cotton ball will be between the snout and the head. This makes the snout stick out from the head to give a 3 dimensional effect.
- Glue the small triangles to the large triangle to make ears
- Glue the eyes and ears to the head
Assembling the Piggy Bank
- Glue the head to one end of the pig
- Take the toilet paper roll feet and cut ½ inch down 5 or 6 times to make tabs. Fold down the tabs to give you a larger surface for gluing/taping.
- Tape or glue the feet to the bottom of the pig using the tabs.
- Slice the top of the pig open (were the Kleenex comes out) – this is where you put the money in.
And you DONE!!!
