If your child loves drawing on rocks or is just starting out on their rock drawing adventures, try drawing a bat on a rock!

This is a great Halloween craft to do with kids and it’s easy to make.

This is a great project to get kids excited about rock painting as it is a beginner project and the end result is really cool.

If you’re making this craft for Halloween, make sure to give the bats big fangs – making them vampire bats (adding a drop of red to the fangs will make them even cooler).

This is a short project, so it’s also great for the classroom – really frugal if you have access to rocks near you.

Any bat fan would love to make this craft, especially in the fall when bats are more easily seen in the evenings and at night.

Once you’ve done it the first time, you won’t be able to stop and soon you’ll have a cauldron of bats (that’s what a group of bats are called!)

So are you ready to get crafting with us?
