How to Make a Batman Light

Batman's famous bat signal light is a staple in Gotham City. When the light shines against the clouds, Batman knows that he's needed and springs into action. Making your own Batman light is actually far less complicated than it might sound and you can use it to flash the bat signal on your wall, floor or ceiling. Use your homemade Batman light at theme parties for decoration or simply for everyday play at home.

Things You'll Need

• Black construction paper
• White crayon
• Scissors
• Double-sided tape
• Circular floodlight

Instructions

1. Measure the width of the circular floodlight you will use to project your bat signal. Reduce the measurement by 1 inch to establish the width of the bat shape you'll create.

2. Draw a bat signal shape with a white crayon on a black piece of construction paper, either by free-handing, copying or using a downloaded stencil. Make it the width determined by the measurement of the floodlight.

3. Cut out the shape with scissors.

4. Apply a few pieces of double-sided tape to one side of the bat shape. Don't use regular tape on the sides of the bat shape because it will show up in the light.

5. Apply the bat shape to the center of your circular floodlight and press it down with your hands to adhere the tape.
