About the Show
Mama Pig has had quite enough of cleaning up after her fully grown little pigs! She sends them off with affection and money to make their way in the world. Which little pig will build a house that can withstand the powerful puffs of the Big Bad Wolf — surfer Georgie, farmer Jeremiah or Amelia, the avid reader?
Children share their favorite sports, veggies, and books with the puppets in this delightful and interactive rendition of The Three Little Pigs.
