Stapler
Black or Purple Paint Crayon
White Cardstock Paper
Black or Purple Cardstock Paper
Large Cupcake Liners – two per craft
Craft Scissors
Small Googly Eyes – two per craft
Jumbo Popsicle Sticks – one per craft

Directions:

First flatten out your cardboard tube and staple it on each end, to make a rectangle shape. This will be the bat’s body.
Go ahead and use your paint crayon to “paint” one side of the toilet paper roll.
Set it aside for now.
Now grab your TWO large cupcake liners.
Flatten them out with your hands and fold them in half.
Use the stapler to secure the pieces, so the liners won’t come apart. These will become the bat wings.
Next grab your sheets of cardstock paper. Cut out fangs and bat ears.
We are now ready to start assembling! Grab all your elements along the stapler and glue.
Start off by stapling the jumbo popsicle stick, to the back of your flattened cardboard tube. This way you can hold him like a puppet.
Follow that up with the wings and then his face & ears.
Finally, add other embellishments you see fit before displaying/playing with your proudly!!!
