Directed Drawing Pigs

Materials

• White paper
• Black marker
• One large cardboard circle and one smaller cardboard circle for tracing
• Pink crayons
• Blue, green, and yellow water color paint
• Paint brushes

For this activity, your preschooler will be listening to and following multistep directions. First, have your preschooler trace the large circle with a black marker for the pigs body. Then, they will trace the smaller circle inside the larger circle. This will be the pigs head.

Then, instruct your preschooler to draw circles for the eyes and nose. Have them draw a mouth and then two triangles for the ears and four triangles for the feet. Then they can add a tail to their pig. After they finish drawing the pig, they can draw the background details such as grass and a sun. When they are done drawing, they color their pig with pink crayons.

Once the pig is colored, they can use the water colors to paint the grass, sky, and sun.
