The Story of “The Three Little Pigs”

Today, we’re going to read a fun story called “The Three Little Pigs.” Are you ready? Let’s begin!

Once Upon a Time…

There was a mommy pig with three little pigs. She didn’t have enough money to take care of them, so she sent them off to find their own adventures.

The First Little Pig

The first little pig met a man with some straw. “Please, can I have some straw to build a house?” asked the pig. The man said yes, and the pig built a straw house.

But then, a big, bad wolf came! He said, “Little pig, let me come in!” The pig said, “No, not by the hair on my chinny-chin-chin!”

The wolf huffed and puffed and blew the straw house down!

The Second Little Pig

The second little pig met a man with sticks. “Can I have some sticks to build a house?” asked the pig. The man said yes, and the pig built a stick house.

But the wolf came again! “Little pig, let me come in!” he said. The pig said, “No, not by the hair on my chinny-chin-chin!”

The wolf huffed and puffed and blew the stick house down!

The Third Little Pig

The third little pig met a man with bricks. “Can I have some bricks to build a house?” asked the pig. The man said yes, and the pig built a brick house.

The wolf came and said, “Little pig, let me come in!” But the pig said, “No, not by the hair on my chinny-chin-chin!”

The wolf huffed and puffed, but he couldn’t blow the brick house down!

The Clever Little Pig

The wolf tried to trick the pig by inviting him to a field of turnips. But the pig was too smart! He got up early, collected the turnips, and went home before the wolf arrived.

The wolf tried again with an apple tree and a fair, but the pig outsmarted him each time!

Finally, the wolf tried to come down the chimney. But the pig was ready! He boiled a pot of water, and when the wolf fell in, the pig quickly covered the pot.

Happily Ever After

The little pig lived happily ever after in his strong brick house. The end!

  • What do you think makes the third little pig’s house stronger than the others? Can you think of something strong in your own home?
  • If you were one of the little pigs, what kind of house would you build and why? What materials would you use?
  • Have you ever had to solve a problem like the clever little pig? How did you figure it out, and what did you learn from it?
  1. Build Your Own House: Gather materials like straws, sticks, and small bricks or blocks. Let the children build their own little houses using these materials. After building, gently blow on each house to see which one stands strong. Ask the children why they think some houses stayed up while others fell down. This activity helps them understand the importance of using strong materials.

  2. Role Play the Story: Encourage the children to act out the story of “The Three Little Pigs.” Assign roles such as the pigs, the wolf, and the man with materials. Let them use simple props or costumes. After the play, ask them how it felt to be the pig or the wolf and what they learned from the story. This helps them empathize with the characters and understand the story better.

  3. Think Like a Pig: Ask the children to imagine they are the third little pig. What other clever ways could they think of to keep the wolf out? Encourage them to draw or write their ideas. Discuss how being clever and thinking ahead can help solve problems in real life, just like the third pig did.

Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the transcript:

Today’s book is “The Three Little Pigs” by Paul Goydos. It’s back! Once upon a time, there was an old sow with three little pigs. She had no money to keep them, so she sent them off to seek their fortune.

The first little pig met a man with a bundle of straw and said, “Please, man, give me that straw to build me a house.” So the man did, and the little pig built his house with it. Along came a wolf who knocked at the door and said, “Hey, little pig, let me come in.”

The little pig replied, “No, not by the hair of my chinny-chin-chin!” The wolf then said, “Then I’ll huff and I’ll puff and I’ll blow your house in!”

So the wolf huffed and puffed and blew the house down, eating up the first little pig.

The second little pig met a man with a bundle of sticks and asked for them to build a house. The man agreed, and the little pig built his house. The wolf came along again and repeated his request to come in. The little pig refused, and the wolf threatened to blow the house down.

The wolf huffed and puffed and blew the house down, eating up the second little pig.

The third little pig met a man with a load of bricks and asked for them to build a house. The man agreed, and the little pig built his house. When the wolf came along, the little pig refused to let him in.

The wolf huffed and puffed, but he could not blow the brick house down.

Frustrated, the wolf decided to trick the little pig. He suggested they go to a field of turnips together. The little pig got up early, collected the turnips, and returned home before the wolf arrived.

The wolf, angry but determined, tried again with an apple tree and then a fair. The little pig cleverly outsmarted the wolf each time, eventually hiding in a butter churn that rolled down a hill, frightening the wolf away.

Later, the wolf attempted to climb down the chimney to eat the little pig, but the little pig was ready. He boiled water and, when the wolf fell in, he quickly covered the pot.

In the end, the little pig lived happily ever after.
