Instructions:

Step 1:

Take a toilet paper roll and cut it into half. You can keep the full length if you want to, but cutting it shorter makes the bat look cuter. 

(You can also use empty paper towel rolls for this craft, but you will need to cut them into thirds or even quarters rather than half.)

Step 2:

Cut out a strip from black or grey coloured craft paper to cover the toilet paper roll. 

Step 3:

Apply glue on the half cut toilet paper roll and wrap the paper strip around its (toilet paper roll) outer surface.
