P is for Pig, of course! Max loves the book, If You Give a Pig a Party, and his oinking skills are pretty adorable, if I do say so myself!
The toilet paper roll pig is pretty simple:
- 1 toilet paper roll
- Scissors
- Single hole punch
- Pencil
- Sharpie marker
- Glue
- White scrap paper
- Cereal box
First, use a pencil and doodle a pigs head on the back of a cereal box. A circle with two triangles at the top will make a perfect pigs head. The lid of a milk carton is a good size for a pig head if you are looking for something to trace! Then, use a black marker to trace over the pig’s head and cut it out with scissors. Add a snout and two smaller black triangles inside of the ears. Now, it’s time to finish up the pig’s body. Use the black marker to make hooves and a tail and then carefully cut them out of the pig being sure to leave the limbs attached the the toilet paper roll! Add 2 hold punch eyes to the pigs head, and voila! Cutest little piggy you’ve ever seen!
