There was nothing lower than an Israelite who was feeding the pigs, except perhaps one who would contemplate stealing the pigs’ food as they were starving. This moment is a picture of the younger son being utterly humbled. This papercraft looks complex, but it’s straightforward to pull off and gives a great final effect.
To make this craft, you will need the 1-page template printout, scissors, a craft knife, a hole punch, and four split pins (brads) per craft.
Cut all four pieces.
There is an easy cut white border on the pigs. This craft does not require precise cutting as long as the mechanism is not severed.
Make holes in the white circles, a hole punch is ideal for this – if you have younger groups, this can be done in advance.
There are 2 white rectangles that need to be removed to give the craft stability – again, you can do this in advance for younger groups.
Now it is ready to assemble:
Start by attaching the two pig pieces, to the background, using split pins.
Thread the long handled piece through the slits, so the handle is on the front at the right of the craft
Attach the 2 remaining split pins to connect the pigs.
Your craft is complete. Hold one handle in each hand and move the lower handle left and right to make the pigs eat.
