Why This Swing Scene Is So Fun

The pig sits on a wooden board with wood grain and holds the twisted ropes with both front legs. The ropes hang from a thick branch covered in big leaves, with the trunk rising up on the left. In the background are a barn with a cross-braced door and a picket fence, plus bushes and a path. Little flowers dot the grass, giving confident colorists plenty to work on.

Pigs Love to Play

Real pigs don’t ride swings, but they do love to play! Piglets especially run, romp and nudge each other. Pigs are curious and explore everything with their snouts, so many farms give them balls, straw or wood to keep busy. Because they’re so smart, they get bored easily without something to do. And just like this pig, they like a shady spot under the trees on warm days.

Fun Ideas for the Swinging Pig

Make a mini swing from two pieces of yarn and a strip of cardboard, then glue the cut-out pig onto it. Or make up a silly swing song for the pig together.

Color Ideas for the Swing Scene
