This bat craft is a seasonal favorite! Our kids have loved making it and yours will too!

We are crazy over this cute Bat Craft DIY Project

This craft can be used for many occasions.  It’s perfect for school projects, to science programs discussing the benefits of bats and of course for Halloween.  Bats are amazing creatures.  We adore them as they keep our environment free of pesky insects.  Be good to these little creatures.  For more information about Bats visit these websites.  Defenders is a great website with lots of information.
