Top 5 Fun Crafts with Peppa Pig Coloring Pages
Teaching youngsters how to recycle their pics and create wonderful DIY items using some glue, a pair of scissors, and other items at hand will bring you a lot of joy. I often use Peppa Pig coloring pages to create thoughtful gifts and decorations together with my kids. I think that these ideas will be useful for many other parents.
Fact Sheets
There are many animals featured in this TV series, including dogs, ponies, sheep, rabbits, and elephants. Many young children will be thrilled to learn more about them. As it might be too boring to read long descriptions at a young age, utilize cutouts from Peppa Pig coloring pages to decorate custom booklets with interesting facts about the characters featured in different episodes.
Look for unusual facts online together and decide which ones to add to the sheet. This way, you will create a detailed profile for Danny Dog, Pedro Pony, and others. List information about their behavior, family relationships, hobbies, and preferences. Bind the pages together and add new facts when your child learns something new about these animals. As a result, you will create an informative booklet to memorize the key moments of the storyline and capture important plot developments.
Paper Dioramas
If you are ready for a more complex project, create a 3D scene using layered paper and figures from Peppa Pig coloring pages. Find a box frame to organize all the elements nicely and ensure that cutouts are on the foreground to create a voluminous effect. Creating dioramas requires parent supervision, as there are many small details to glue. After spending a few hours, you can create a wonderful art piece that will be reminiscent of Japanese Tatebanko, created by old masters.
Dioramas can represent various events from Peppa’s life. You can use a regular shoe box as a frame and decorate it with wrapping paper. Use two copies of the same page. Use one of them to create the background and the other one to add foreground objects. After gluing the background to the box, cut out the characters while leaving 0.5 inch of paper under them to create stands. Glue the stands to the shoebox to achieve a realistic 3D effect.
Diary Covers
Youngsters enjoy creating private notebooks and decorate them with stickers, glitter, and various cutouts. They can glue the animals from Peppa Pig coloring pages to the covers of their journals to make their design even more unique. Such items can also become gifts for other fans of the series. My daughter was happy when I suggested this activity to her. She picked illustrations and glued the pics with Mod Podge to the front of her diary.
Kids who cannot yet write can draw something or use cutouts to visualize their dreams and wishes. They can create engaging stories featuring their favorite characters, which will become cherished family keepsakes. This idea is also suitable for creating a small notebook with heartfelt wishes for grandma.
Greeting Cards
You can either print a picture on an A5 paper sheet or fold an A4 sheet and glue characters from Peppa Pig coloring pages to it. These illustrations are easy to resize, so you can scale them as you want. Children will like writing warm messages with birthday wishes or holiday greetings on such cards. They can add extra elements to each custom postcard to make it even more unique.
If you decide to use one picture as the front page of your greeting card, choose an illustration that fits best. Our collection features pictures that can be used as Easter or Christmas cards, so be sure to find an image that looks uplifting.
Serving Trays
For this project, you will need to buy a small wooden tray online or at a local store. Children will be happy to decorate it with the protagonists featured on Peppa Pig coloring pages. They can pick their favorite illustrations and use Mod Podge to glue the cutouts to the surface. If your tray is too small, be sure to shrink images before printing them to ensure that the finished tray will have a well-balanced design.
My daughter also decided to decorate the handles and ridges with paint. To cover the surface, we used a food-safe finish. Since we painted the tray, we decided to use an acrylic sealer to ensure that all the elements would be clearly visible. This nice item will make breakfasts more enjoyable for your child.
