Bat Craft Instructions:
STEP 1: Gather your supplies
Before you get started with this shape bat craft, make sure to gather up all your supplies! It makes it SOOOOOO much easier when you aren't running around looking for supplies!
Make sure to download and print off your printable bat pattern. If you are doing this shape activity with younger preschoolers and toddlers you may want to trace and cut out the shapes ahead of time.
STEP 2: Cut out your shapes
Once you have prepared your supplies, it's time to get started on your bat craft! Trace the shapes from your template onto coloured craft papers. Trace the small triangles onto white paper, trace the curved shapes and inner ear shapes onto pink paper, and trace the remaining shapes onto black paper.
The bat pattern includes 3 different shaped bats. The body of each of the bats will either be a circle, square or triange, the other pieces used to make this bat craft remain the same.
STEP 3: Arrange and attach your shapes
Glue the inner ear shapes onto the outer ear shapes to complete the bat's ears. Glue the eyes and mouth onto the selected shape, which will resemble the body of the bat. Then, stick the ear on the top side of the body and glue the fangs onto the front side near the mouth. (see image below)
Glue your wings onto both sides of the bat's body - making sure to apply pressure to allow them to stick together without coming apart.
STEP 4: Leave to dry and repeat
Repeat the steps for each bat shape that you would like to make. Don't feel that you need to only make the shapes included on the bat template. How much fun would it be to make a heart shaped bat, a rectangle bat or a hexagon bat! Toddlers and preschoolers will have so much fun exploring different shapes!
