We were so lucky to be picked to blog about this event! Both of my children are huge fans of Peppa Pig and we even went to Peppa Pig world at Paultons Park a couple of years ago. It was great fun!
Inside the goody box provided by Nick Jr., there is an egg carton box and paint for us to make a Peppa Pig nose! Also there are a range of Peppa Pig musical instruments.
How to make a Peppa Pig nose!
Materials:
- Egg carton box
- Scissors
- Light and dark pink paint and brushes
- Elastic string
- Safety pin/plastic stick
Method:
- Cut out the egg carton box.
- Paint it light pink and let it dry.
- Once dried, use a small brush to dip two dark pink paint circles onto the top.
- Once dried, poke one hole in each side and thread in the elastic string.
This is Mr K showing off his piggy nose and playing his guitar!
