Description

The dollar stores carry the wiffle bats. I noticed now that they have them half the size of this one in the picture. Use the suggestions above and anything else you can think of, gather together, find a good show on TV and tie everything to the bat. Drill a hole in the handle of the bat for hanging. I hid a few cotton balls in the curlers, tucked in tissues here and there and stuffed some of the wiffle balls with shredded paper.
