Materials: Toilet roll, hole punch, kid-safe paint, black construction paper or cardstock, googly eyes, chalk, pipe cleaners, glue or tape. These are so easy to make and they’ll put all those empty toilet rolls you’re tossing to good use. Parents can help kids paint the toilet paper roll and cut out the wings and ears, and then kids can handle glueing on the eyes, wings and ears, drawing on a mouth and attaching the pipe cleaner “legs” through a couple of punched holes at the bottom of the roll. The kids will love hanging these little black bats, created by Bianca at Uncreative Mum, all around the house for Halloween.
