Create Your Own Pig Paper Bag Puppet! 🐷
Craft Tutorial with Emily & Scout
Is your little piggy ready for a crafty playtime adventure? In this easy step-by-step guide, we’ll show you how to create your very own Pig Paper Bag Puppet – just like Percy, who joins Penny the Pig for some muddy fun! This activity is perfect for young children and supports creativity, storytelling, and fine motor skills.
🧰 What You'll Need:
1 brown paper bag
1 glue stick
Scissors (with adult help)
Our Pig Puppet Template – available for free download below - (Make sure it's already cut out before you begin!)

🐽 Let’s Get Started:
1. Make the Body
Find the large rectangular body piece in your template.
Apply glue all over the back.
Line up the bottom of the rectangle with the bottom of the front of your paper bag (the side without the flap).
Slide it just under the flap and press it down firmly.
2. Add the Head
Grab the smaller rectangle – this is the head.
Glue the back and stick it to the flap of the paper bag, directly above the body piece.
Press down to secure.
3. Add the Nose
Find the pig nose piece and glue the back.
Stick it to the centre of the head, just above the body.
4. Add the Eyes
Glue the back of each eye.
Stick them above the nose, one on each side.
5. Add the Ears
Apply glue to the bottom (white tab) of each ear piece.
Flip the paper bag over.
Stick the ears to the top corners of the head from the back, so they peek over the top when you flip the puppet around again.
6. Add the Legs
Glue the back of the two leg pieces.
Stick them on the lower part of the body, one on each side, to create cute little pig legs.
7. Add the Tail
Take the curly pig tail and glue just the end.
Flip the bag to the back and stick the tail on one side so the curly end is visible from the front.
🎉 Meet Percy the Pig!
And there you have it – your very own pig puppet ready for playtime! Percy can now join Penny for endless muddy adventures and imaginative fun.
