Halloween - better late than never

I decided to have a children's Halloween party in the pub.  It went quite well.  We had bat shaped cookies (which I had been up half the night baking) for them to decorate, flying bats to make and ghosts to make.

These were so simple to make and the children seemed to enjoy making them. Take a square of white material, thread elastic through the middle and knot it.  Put a ping pong ball underneath the elastic and tie with some rafia.  Add eyes and away you go.  Very simple, quite effective and happy children.
