Egg Box Bat Garland

Ages 4–8⏱ 40 minMess: MEDIUMGrown-up help: LowJunk ModelArt & Design
Captain A smiles excitedly while holding up both ends of the finished bat garland, displaying it stretched out.

Captain A will help you learn: Cutting and painting egg box cups builds scissor control, and making matching wings on both sides is a simple lesson in symmetry. It is also a chance to learn how real bats find their way in the dark using echoes.

⚠️ Use child-safe scissors. An adult may need to cut the egg box cups apart, as the card can be tough. Use washable paint and wash hands afterwards.

Play through the project step by step, with narration read aloud.

Make it your own: Make one bat hang upside down, like real bats do when they rest, and add a paper moon to the middle of the garland.
