Materials

  • Colored cardstock or construction paper
  • Scissors
  • Glue
  • Crayola Bold & Bright Marker or White Paint Pen
  • Bat template

Instructions

  • Download the bat template, print, and cut out the pieces you need.
  • Begin by gluing the eyes to the middle of the circle body.
  • Place the triangle teeth underneath the eyes and glue them in place. Alternatively, kids can draw on the teeth with a white paint pen or Crayola Bold & Bright marker.
  • Create the bat's wings by gluing the largest triangle to the top right-hand corner of the rectangle.
  • Next, glue the 2nd triangle to the left of the triangle you just glued down. Take the 3rd triangle and glue it to the left of the previous one.
  • Repeat the last two steps with the other wing, starting in the top left-hand corner and gluing the other triangles to the right.
  • Take the completed wings and glue them to the back and middle of the bat's body.
  • Finish up the bat by gluing the triangle ears to the back and top of the body.
