Pig Crafts for Kids

So today I’m sharing some easy and fun pig crafts for kids with you, mainly because I thought it would be a good idea with Chinese New Year on the way so that you can use these as year of the pig crafts but also because I think pig crafts are actually pretty popular all year round? If you have young kids then you’ve probably spent some (or in my case a lot) watching Peppa Pig and many of these are easy to adapt into Peppa Pig crafts. Or you can use them for a farm theme too – loads of way to use these easy and simple crafts.
