Why Kids Love This Piglet Chase

Each piglet is caught in a different pose: one leaps forward, the middle one spins around, and the last one gallops behind. All three have floppy ears and curly little tails. A small pig house with a peaked roof and a piece of wooden fence sit in the back, with flowers and grass tufts up front. The shapes are medium-sized, great for kids who are getting more confident.

🖨️ Step by Step: How to Print It Best

1
Open the image
Click “Print” on the right, or download the image or PDF.
2
Choose portrait
Letter or A4 in portrait, scaling set to “Fit to page” – the picture fits the sheet perfectly.
3
Pick your paper
Regular printer paper is fine for colored pencils; for paint, use thicker paper (65–110 lb).
4
Color & display
Grab your crayons and go – then give the finished picture a spot on the fridge!

Life as a Little Piglet

A mother pig usually has 8 to 16 piglets at once, so piglets grow up in a big crowd of brothers and sisters. They are curious and playful, running, nudging and chasing each other. Playing like this helps them learn how to get along in a group. Pigs love living together and “talk” with lots of different grunts and squeals. Within a few days, piglets can recognize their mom’s voice.

Ideas After Coloring

Name each piglet and decide who’s chasing whom – it could turn into a three-part picture story. Then head outside and play your own game of piglet tag, oinks included.

Color Ideas for the Three Piglets

Three piglets mean three chances to try different pig colors.

🩷 Soft pink
The classic pink farm pig, with slightly darker ears.
⚫ Belted
A black piglet with a white band around its middle.
🟠 Ginger
Some pig breeds are reddish brown, perfect for piglet number three.
🔵 Tagger blue
Color whoever is “it” blue so everyone can spot them.
💡 Coloring Tip: Use stronger colors on the pig house and fence than on the piglets, and the three runners will really pop off the page.
