Themed family fun - Pig week

Welcome to pig week! This week we have made paper plate pigs and cup cake pigs and we have had loads of fun.

Paper plate pigs - These are so simple to make and so much fun.

All you need is:

* Paper plate.

* Pink paint and paint brush.

* Pink paper.

* Black pen.

Just paint the plate completely pink. Cut a circle of pink paper for the nose and colour in two black dots, cut two small dots and colour in black for the eyes and cut out two triangles for the ears. Then stick all the pieces to the plate to make a pigs face. You will not need any glue as the paint is still wet it will stick when it dries.

Pig cupcakes.

You need:

* Cup cakes.

* Icing sugar.

* Pink food colour.

* Marshmallows.

* Red lace sweets or similar.

* Smarties or similar.

* Icing writing pens.

To make.

Make some pink icing with the icing sugar, water and pink food colour.

Cover a cake in pink icing.

Cut a marshmallow in half and place one half in the middle of the cake to make a nose. Cut the second half into two to make the ears. Place these at the top of the cake.

Add smarties for the eyes and a small piece of lace for a mouth.

Finally add two dots of writing icing on the nose and a dot on each smartie for the eye balls.
