Get crafty with the kiddos this weekend and try out our fun cupcake liner bat card craft! This easy, but impressive project is sure to bring a smile to everyone’s face.

Craft Supplies:

Ensure you have all the materials needed for the craft within reach. For the cupcake liner bat craft, you’ll need:

  • Mini Black Cupcake Liners
  • Gray Cardstock Paper
  • Black Cardstock Paper
  • White Cardstock Paper
  • Glue Stick
  • Small Wiggle Eyes
  • Scissors
  • Thin Tip Black Marker

Directions:

Follow these simple steps to create your very own cupcake liner bats.

  • First things first – make your card. I went with a regular 5×5″ square card shape out of gray colored cardstock. You just need to make sure your black cupcake liner will fit on the front of your card. I went with a shade of dark gray for a Halloween theme but feel free to change it up!
  • Now you are ready for the “bat” part. Grab your black cupcake liner and flatten it out with your fingers.
  • Put some glue on the back of your flattened cupcake liner piece and glue it onto your card front.
  • If the edges are sticking up, add more glue so it really sticks down on the paper.
  • Next up – the embellishments. Grab all your sheets of cardstock and the scissors.
  • Cut out some bat wings, triangular ears and fangs.
  • To finish your Cupcake Liner Bat Card, simply glue the cardstock pieces you just cut out, in their designated spots, as well as the wiggle eyes to give it life.
  • Take the Sharpie marker to write clever sayings like “I’m batty for you” around the design.
  • Then add other embellishments you see fit and give away proudly!

Craft Activity Safety Guidelines:

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
