Hand and Footprint Bat

Today we made a cute little bat.  I painted Eva's foot and both her hands black and she pressed them onto a sheet of purple paper.
When it dried, I cut around the edge to help it take the shape of a bat.  Eva added googly eyes and I drew on a nose and mouth.  Eva got out her camera to take a picture too (I think I have a little blogger in the making!).

  2. Cute! I think I'm your newest follower - you have some really neat ideas. We did a hand print bat too last week. Tomorrow I'll be posting a whole heap of bat printables......you might be able to do some with Eva - hope you find them helpful :-)

  6. My little girl and I just did this! She kept giggling when I painted her foot! Great idea! :) (I was a first grade teacher b/f kids, too!)
