Project 2 - Bendy Pig and Friends
Remember it’s important that an adult helps you when cutting out the different shapes!!
Materials and Tools:
- One piece of dark pink felt
- One piece of light pink felt
- Three white or pink pipe cleaners
- One bright orange pipe cleaner
- Two large Joggle eyes
- All purpose glue
- Black felt tip pen
- Scissors
- Ruler
- Compass with pencil
- Hole Punch
Use the ruler to
set the compass to 5cm. |
Draw a circle on the dark pink felt (this is
the pig's body). |
Carefully cut
out the circle. |
Using the hole punch, make 4 holes at equal
distance apart, to fix the arms and legs. |
Use the ruler to
set the compass to 3cm, then draw a circle
on another piece of dark pink felt (this
is the pig's head). |
Carefully cut out the circle. |
Now use the ruler to
set the compass to 2cm, then draw a circle
on the light pink felt (this is the pig's
nose). Carefully cut out the circle. |
And then use the ruler to set the compass to 1cm, draw four circles on the dark pink felt (this is the pig's trotters). Carefully cut out the circles. |
Take a small circles (pig's trotters) and fold
it in half. |
Then cut a triangle to the centre of the circle.
Repeat steps 9 and 10 for the other three
small circles. |
Use the hole punch to make a hole in each of the small circles on the opposite side to the triangles. |
Cut two pipe cleaners in half for the arms
and legs of the pig. |
Insert a pipe cleaner throughthe hole in one of the small circles (trotters). |
And then twist the end to attach the trotter, repeat steps 13 and 14 for the other three small circles. |
You should now have four legs like these. |
Insert a pipe cleaner leg through a hole in
the larger circle (pig's body). |
Now twist the end to secure the leg, repeat steps 16 and 17 until all four legs are attached. |
Your pig should now look like this. |
On the light pink felt draw two
triangles. Carefully cut round the edge of the drawn
triangles (these are the pig's ears). |
Glue the two triangles
to the back of the medium size circle (pig's
head) to make the ears.
|
Turn over the pig's
head and glue it to the body as shown above. |
Glue the pig's nose
to the head. |
Glue the Joggle eyes to the pig's head. |
Draw two lines on the light pink felt nose. |
Twist a pipe cleaner around a pen to make a tail. |
Attach the tail through
a leg hole on the body. |
Twist an orange pipe cleaner into a bow and glue it to the top of the pig's head. |
Now enjoy your new
