Bat Tree

Let's Make A Bat Tree

 

Good Housekeeping

Sorry that it's late on a friday but I've had car issues.  Here is a super easy and helpful craft for the weekend.

What you'll need:

• Sticks
• black and white construction paper
• black and white markers (even glitter or anything else to decorate with)
• hole puncher
• Halloween colored ribbon
• pumpkin (optional)

1.    Send your kids outside to collect sticks and twigs to spray paint black.  Spray paint them outside, and while they dry cut out some bats and ghost out of construction paper and decorate.  Let them dry too.

2.    Let the kids decorate in any way, just keep the basic shape of bats or ghost.  They can make super hero's, polkadotted bats, rainbow ghost, etc.

3.     Once everything is dried, tie the bats and ghost with ribbon to the branches
(or a tree in your front yard).  You can put the branches in a pumpkin, a glass vase with black stones or marshmallows or even candy corn. 


Let your imagination go wild, but most of all have fun and enjoy the time with your family!
