Halloween crafts and fun and can be really simple. My children are itching to decorate the house so we made some simple clothes peg bats to hang up.
Equipment needed to make clothes peg bats:
wooden clothes pegs
black acrylic paint
black paper
scissors
sticky tape and glue dots
How to make clothes peg bats:
Paint the clothes pegs with black acrylic paint and leave to dry.
Draw around your child’s hands on black paper and cut out.
Tape the two hand shapes together at the wrists and glue the clothes peg in place. Add eyes or ears, we used a pipe cleaner but you could make ears from black felt or paper and glue on.
