As soon as the end of summer hits, the number of blog searches for “Halloween crafts” goes up like a bat out of hell. I mean, you guys love you some Halloween.

And who can blame you?

It’s a chance for kids of all ages (meaning, you!) to abandon the daily grind and dress up like someone (or something) else, eat a ton of candy, decorate the heck out of everything, and enjoy the various potions and poisons at neighborhood parties.

Flash from the Past

Here’s a picture of yours truly dressed up as a patient for Halloween. My kid brother dressed up as a doctor and we went to a neighborhood party as a doctor and the patient. LOL

This picture is early 1980’s. Ahhh….the good old days.

Just to be clear, I was mad that I didn’t get to be the doctor but I didn’t let that hold me back from bobbing for apples, dancing to Monster Mash, stuffing my face with homemade cupcakes and cookies, and filling my pillowcase up with candy.

I have great memories from that time spent with friends and family and isn’t that what holidays like Halloween are all about?

To help you and your kiddos get your spooky on, I’ve rounded up a list of 25 of the coolest bat crafts I could find. There’s a little something for all skill levels and all age ranges.

I even included my very own Vampirina Pumpkin and Bat Candy Dish. =)
