You need:
Cardboard
Black Spray Paint
Half sphere styrofoam shape
2 Styrofoam circles (one small, one bigger)
Reflectors
Red and orange tissue paper
Hot Glue Gun
Batman symbol printed out
Dashboard decorations (optional)
Here's how we did it:
First we cut out the cardboard into the shape we wanted for the sides of the Batmobile. I cut out a rectangle for the back of the Batmobile and a square for the front. I spray painted the cardboard black, at least 2 coats of paint.
The smaller styrofoam circle was painted silver. The larger one I painted black. I also painted the half sphere black.
Then I glued the front square to the sides and finished it up by gluing the back rectangle. That gives you the Batmobile shape. It only takes 4 pieces of cardboard to make the Batmobile. At the last minute I cut out a thin rectangle shape, painted it black, and added it to the front of the Batmobile to make a dashboard
I clued the large styrofoam circle to the front and glued the half sphere in the middle.
For the back I added 2 reflectors (bought at Walmart). I glued the smaller silver styrofoam circle in the center and added red and orange tissue paper to look like flames. I added larger Batman symbols to each side of the Batmobile.
The Batmobile fit really nice around Caleb's chair so we only had to add a little string to tie it to his back seat bars.
