Instructions
First print out the bat wing template on white cardstock paper.
Using scissors, have children trim out the bat wings from the printable. One printable will makes TWO WINGS FOR ONE BAT. Once cut out, set aside.
Out of the remaining white cardstock paper, cut out two small triangle fangs for your hat.
At this point in time, you should cut out some triangle "ears" for the bat, from the black cardstock.
Set all the paper pieces aside till the last step.
Now grab your craft paint, the small paper plate, the wooden spoon and the paint brush.
Squirt a small amount of black paint on the paper plate.
Paint your wooden spoon completely black. This is the body of the bat.
Once done, set aside to let it dry completely.
To finish off the Wooden Spoon Bat – simply glue the cardstock pieces in place and add the wiggle eyes so they can see.
Then add other embellishments you see fit {like glitter, rhinestones etc}
To display, you can add magnets to the back or hot glue some string for easy hanging!
