Easy spider crafts are perfect for dull Spring days, or even coming up to Halloween. Why not use some of these ideas to give someone a fright on Halloween night!
One of the creatures I see almost everyday, if not several times a day is a spider! My kids love chasing them around and keeping them in containers, so I knew I had to get a list of awesome easy Halloween spider crafts for them to do whenever there are no creepy crawlies to play with.
In fact my little girl decorated a small cardboard and made a playground for her ‘pet’ spiders. She said the cardboard box was when the spider wanted a rest and the playground was for it to have some fun.
She had lots of colored craft papers stuck together with pipe cleaners on top of the spider to climb over!! Little kids and their imaginations never fail to amuse me!
These make great Halloween decor for your fancy dress party, plus they will not run away when chased! Remember Little Miss Muffet was scared and ran away from a spider!
These 8 legged critters can be made from toilet paper rolls, egg cartons, pom poms and other commonly used craft supplies.
