Craft: Bat Trick or Treat Bag
This week's craft was based on the picture above. About 2" of the top of a paper lunch bag was cut off to make the bat's body. The children colored wings, feet, teeth, eyes, and ears and then glued them to the bag to make a bat.
Literacy Extensions:
- After reading The Shivery Shades of Halloween ask your child to come up with more Halloween items for the different colors.
- Talk about Halloween safety with your child before going trick or treating.
Notes:
I changed the words of The Spooky Wheels on the Bus to "The Halloween Bus goes . . . " to make it even more Halloween appropriate.
The children went trick or treating throughout the library after the story time.
