Easy Bat Craft for Kids

Halloween Decorations your kids can make ~ Bat Craft for Kids

I love decorating for Halloween.  Recently we have been decorating the house with adorable friendly ghosts and junk drawer pumpkins.  I love the addition of these simple paper bats.  They are so quick to make and a fun way for kids to help decorate the house.

Using the bat template, trace the bats onto the black paper.  Cut out the traced bats and glue them together.  You could use googly eyes, but I love how the over sized paper eyes look.  Super simple!

Have you read the book Stellaluna?  This would also make a fun activity after you read the book.

Outdoor Halloween Bat Decorations:

Turn your bat into an spooky outdoor decoration in just a few simple steps.  Instead of using black paper, use black craft foam.  Punch a hole and string them up using fishing line.  They’ll withstand even the wettest of weather! Hang several of them in a tree for a spooky little bat colony or hang them from your porch. Super easy and oh so cute!
