Flying Bats

You may think of a certain super hero when you hear the term “bat mobile” but really a mobile is a fun way to incorporate the whimsy and fun of the Halloween holiday into your bat craft making. A mobile is fairly simple to make. All that you need are the materials that you are choosing to use for your bats, a hanger and some thread to hang the bats by. You can use bat cut-outs or draw a series of different bats to hang from your mobile. For those who work well with sewing machines, you can even use felt to make stuffed bats for the mobile. Once you have the number of bats that you intend to use for the mobile, use string, thread or fishing wire to secure each bat at a different length from the longest part of the hanger. Hang the mobile outside from a tree (weather permitting) or hang inside from the ceiling, a coat rack or wherever else you can hang a hanger from.
