This pig is ready to party! Our lucky pig coloring page shows a cheerful piggy in a party hat with a streamer. Print it for free and color it for your New Year's Eve party.
Why this party pig has so much style
The pig stands on all four legs and glances sideways with a cheeky grin. On its head sits a pointy striped party hat with a fluffy pompom, held on by an elastic under the chin. A long streamer curls around its neck and dangles down the side. The bold, linocut-style lines invite you to add your own patterns to its body.

Why do Germans call New Year's Eve βSilvesterβ?
Long ago, owning a pig was a sign of wealth β a family with a pig would have enough to eat. That is why Germans say βSchwein gehabtβ (βhad a pigβ) when someone got lucky. Many families also eat jelly doughnuts called Berliner, sometimes with a joke filling. And of course, a lucky pig is a must!
