Double the luck! This happy pig brings good fortune twice over: itself and a four-leaf clover. Our lucky pig coloring page is a free printable you can color and give as a good-luck wish.
Why This Lucky Pig Brings Smiles
The pig stands sideways, turns its head toward you and gives a cheeky smile. In one front leg it holds a big clover with four heart-shaped leaves and a little bow tied around the stem. A curly tail twirls at the back. The shapes are clear and medium-sized, so kids can easily tell the pig, leaves and bow apart.

Why Are Pigs Lucky?
In Germany and some other European countries, the pig is a good-luck symbol. Long ago, a pig in the barn meant a family had enough food, so people linked pigs with plenty and good fortune. Around the turn of the year, Germans often give little lucky pigs, many made of marzipan. The four-leaf clover is lucky too, because itβs so rare β most clovers have only three leaves.
Ideas for Your Lucky Pig
Cut out the finished pig and glue it onto a folded card for a test, a first day of school or a birthday. You can also head outside to a clover patch and hunt for a real four-leaf clover.
