Quick Steps
Step 1: Fold the paper diagonally in both directions, unfolding after each fold.
Step 2: Fold the top tip down, unfold, then fold it toward the crease line. Unfold again.
Step 3: Fold the bottom edge up to the top crease, then fold the tip down.
Step 4: Create the creases, then fold both sides and bottom corners toward the center.
Step 5: Flip the paper over. Fold the bottom triangle’s edges toward the center, then collapse the middle section inward.
Step 6: Fold the remaining edges toward the center. Fold both triangles outward to form the wings, then unfold them.
Step 7: Hold the bat with your thumb and index finger. Gently press the back fold to flap the wings, then add eyes if desired.
