These Tissue Paper Bats have been flying all over our house this Halloween season. They’re a cinch to make and fun to fly.

Supplies for Tissue Paper Bats:

• Black tissue paper
• Black pipe wire

First, cut your large square of tissue paper into 4 sections, it will then give you 4 bats. Pinch the tissue paper in the center with your fingers. Twist the pipe wire around the center and then form the two pipe wire ends into ears for the bat.

Now they’re ready for flight. We even took them outside to fly around, hoping they’d eat all the pesky mosquitos.
