- Dark pink felt
- Black marker
- Googly eyes
Tools
- Scissors

Instructions
- Gather your supplies and get ready for some farmyard fun—this little piggy is going to be too cute to handle.
- Line up craft sticks side by side, then glue a smaller stick across the back to hold them together. This creates the base of your pig’s face.
- Paint the entire surface with pink acrylic paint. Let it dry until it’s no longer tacky.
- Use templates (or freehand if you’re brave!) to trace a snout shape on dark pink felt and two ear shapes on lighter pink felt.
- Cut out the shapes carefully with scissors.
- Glue the darker inner ear pieces onto the lighter outer ears for a layered look.
- Attach the ears to the top of the painted craft stick base, then glue the snout onto the middle.
- Stick on two big googly eyes right above the snout. The bigger the eyes, the funnier the pig looks!
- With a black marker, add nostrils to the felt snout and draw a sweet smile under it.
- Let everything dry, then admire your happy little piggy—he’s ready for the farmyard!
