We are in love with paper bag puppets lately. They are just so much fun, we can’t help ourselves! So far this spring we’ve made a frog, duck, butterfly and bee and today we are sharing a simple and adorable Paper Bag Pig Craft. It’s so fun for pretend play and you can also couple it with your favorite children’s books with pig characters.

Supplies needed:
- paper lunch bag
- pink paint
- pink cardstock paper
- googly eyes
- black marker
- scissors
- glue
Tutorial:
1. Paint your bag
Start by painting the front of your paper bag with pink paint. Let it dry completely.
2. Cut out face shapes
From your pink cardstock paper you’ll need to cut out: 2 ears, a 2-inch circle nose, and a strip for your tail.
3. Glue ears & nose
Glue your ears onto the back of the bag and your nose on the face of the puppet. Also, glue your googly eyes onto the face of the puppet. We bent our ears over a little to make like floppy ears.
4. Make pig tail
Twist your pink strip of paper around your finger to make it curly. Glue it onto the back of your paper bag.
5. Draw a mouth
Finish your puppet by drawing a mouth on it with your black marker. Such a cute and happy pig!
Here you have cute pig puppet to play with!
