Start by placing a protective layer of craft paper or a tablecloth on your activity surface.

Take a recycled paper towel roll and cut it into 3 equal pieces. Fold each of the tops of the previously cut rolls pinching the corners to make ears.

Then take your choice of black or purple construction paper and cut it to the length and width of the paper towel roll. Wrap the construction paper around the paper towel roll, securing it in the back with a few staples.

Once secure, fold the top of the construction paper to match your previous fold and attach it to the cardboard with a dab of glue.

Cut some small circles out of the glitter card stock for the eyes. Glue your eyes onto the construction paper-covered roll.

Take the white construction paper and cut small triangles for the “fangs.” Affix the fangs with glue and press to secure.

Once both are secure, take your red marker and make a little “blood” on one of the fangs and the black marker to fill in some pupils on the eyes.

Choose black or purple construction paper and sketch some wings to use as a template. Use this template to make the additional wings needed. Trace the edge of the wings with a black marker for a border. Using scissors, cut the wings and secure them to the back of the bats with a few staples.
