Love From Heckerty

Seven Bats A-Squeaking

Heckerty’s 12 Days of Christmas Day 7

“On the 7th day of Christmas, Zanzibar gave me:

Seven bats a-squeaking,

Six cauldrons boiling,

Five magic wands –

Four hooting owls.

Three blind mice,

Two jumping frogs,

And a sardine prepared for my tea.”

These “bats” are easy to make and can be customized for Christmas with glitter and red and green paint.

Add a hook to the string and create a Christmas tree ornament!
