Sock Puppet Bat Craft

  • 17,080 Visits
Sock puppets always go over very very well in our house, so we decided to make one for Halloween! This cute bat is a great Halloween craft for preschoolers and makes a great interactive toy when it is finished. Your child will love "flying" their bat around the house waiting for Halloween night. We found that our daugther enjoyed us helping create the craft while she wore the sock on her hand. She pointed to where the pieces should go, we put on the glue and she stuck on the pieces. We think she enjoyed watching the sock turn into a puppet on her own hand!
