Big Pig on a Dig

My nieces and nephew were over today. While the  two older ones were playing with some friends, Paisley and I sat down to read a story. We chose to read Big Pig on a Dig by Phil Roxbee Cox and Stephen Cartwright. This story is part of the Ted and Friends collection.


In this story Big Pig finds a map that leads to a treasure chest full of gold. He follows the map and starts digging and digging. The only thing he finds is a rabbit. Big Pig learns that his friend Fat Cat made up the map for fun. Paisley thought this was hilarious that Big Pig got tricked. She decided she wanted to trick her brother and sister by making a map that will lead to a "cake". I thought this was an excellent idea so we got out our supplies and map the map.



Spencer's contribution to the map making was eating the crayons. ;)

We left the map on the door for Maddie and Jaxson to come find. They followed the map only to find that the "cake" was a picture of a cake. They didn't think this was very amusing but Paisley reveled in their disappointment! Score one for the little sister!
