Hand and Footprint Bat

We’re com­pletely batty over here for these adorable hand and foot­print bats!

So easy and cute–a great way to pre­serve mem­o­ries of those pre­cious lit­tle hands & feet! The only thing even remotely dif­fi­cult about this lit­tle craft is mak­ing sure the kids don’t move their hands too much.  It was MUCH harder with the 18 month olds than the 3 year olds.  And, I didn’t even try this one with the 6 month old by myself, although I think a baby bat would be quite cute.

To make these cute lit­tle fly­ing mam­mals, just apply your kid­dos’ painted hands and foot to your choice of col­ored paper. Use pinky fin­ger­prints to make the ears.  Once dry, apply goo­gly eyes, draw a mouth, and cut out.  Then, put them some­where cute! :)

What Hal­loween crafts are YOU batty for?
