Sign language for pig
Book: How Big is a Pig? by Claire Beaton
Song: “The Tail of a Pig” (Tune: “The Wheels on the Bus”)
The tail of a pig curls round and round… (circle finger round and round)
All through the mud.
The mouth of a pig goes oink, oink, oink… (put hand in front of mouth like a snout)
All through the mud.
The snout of a pig goes root, root, root…(act with snout and hands like you are rooting through the mud)
All through the mud.
The hooves of a pig go run, run, run… All through the mud.
The ears of a pig go twitch, twitch, twitch… All through the mud.

Rhyme: “To Market, To Market”
To market, to market (march slowly in place)
To buy a fat pig.
Home again, home again (hop)
Jiggety jig.
To market, to market (march slowly in place)
To buy a fat hog.
Home again, home again (hop)
Jiggety jog.
Song: “I’m a Little Piggy” (Tune: “I’m a Little Teapot”)
I’m a little piggy
Short and stout
Here are my ears (point to ears)
And here is my snout (point to nose)
When I see the yummy food in my pail (put hand up over eyes like you are looking)
I oink, oink oink (oink!)
and wiggle my tail (wiggle your piggy tails!)
