Bats make a great fall or Halloween craft theme. This mammal is one of the most fascinating animals because it can fly like a bird. Isn’t that surprising?
This craft idea is really easy and really frugal because it only uses paper (and possibly googly eyes or stickers). You can also make recycled crafts. Using old paper, have the kids paint them black before they start making bats.
How to make a simple paper bat craft?
What you need:
- black paper
- blank
- scissors
- glue
- Optional: googly eyes or eye stickers
step-by-step instructions
First, cut out two pieces of black paper. About 2 inches / 5 cm and letter full width / A4 size paper.
This is all the black paper we need to make this bat craft.
Take one of the strips and add glue to one end.
Tie the ends to a paper roll. Let the glue harden.
Fold another piece of paper in half.
Cutting Bat Wings (You can draw them first) – Perhaps this tutorial will help you how to draw a bat.
Remove the wings.
Fold the wings at the end closest to the body and apply glue.
Glue the wings to the paper roll.
Cut two ears from a piece of black paper obtained when the wings were cut and attach them to the top (inside) of the scroll.
Next, cut two long triangles from white paper and attach them to the bat.
Also add two googly eyes.
