Friendly toilet-roll ghosts and bats

Age: 3–5 (with an adult) and 6–9 · Time: 20–30 min · Level: Easy

Picture: Friendly toilet-roll ghosts and bats

Materials

empty toilet rolls, white and black paper (or paint), child-safe scissors, glue stick, black marker, optional sticker eyes.

Steps

  1. Wrap one roll in white paper (ghost) and one in black (bat). Glue in place.
  2. Draw two eyes and a happy mouth on the ghost.
  3. Cut two wings from black paper (an adult draws the outline for ages 3–5).
  4. Glue the wings to the back of the black roll.
  5. Add eyes and draw a smile on the bat.
  6. Let the glue dry – display them in the window!

Safety for grown-ups

Use round-tip children's scissors and non-toxic glue. An adult cuts for the youngest. Small parts like sticker eyes are a choking hazard – supervise children under 3.
