Scrap Craft Piggy Ears for your Toddler

At our house, Dress Up is a favorite game.  While Miss Dot has plenty of costumes in the form of dresses, tiaras, wands, tutus, etc., sometimes you just want to be a pig.  We decided to get creative and make some pig ears one day, and we made it all from things we had around the house (including scraps!).

What I Learned the Hard Way: We were totally making this up on the fly, so I didn’t think to measure the ears out in advance; and they’re a little on the big side.  One of my friends suggested that maybe we were playing Olivia from the children’s books.  Yeah…that’s…that’s totally what I was going for!
