Halloween Craft for Children
As we mentioned Monday, there are a lot of creative and fun ways to decorate your home for Halloween. Today’s Halloween craft is a fun activity for your children, but something you can also use as part of your Halloween decor.
Spider Halloween Craft
What you’ll need:
- Paper plate (black preferable)
- Black, white, and any other color construction paper, we used green
- Scissors
- Glue
- Optional: Googly eyes
Instructions:
- Fold the black paper plate in half. If you do not have a black plate then either let your child color the plate black or you can cover it with black construction paper like we did.
- Trace and cut out eight squiggly legs
- Trace and cut out two circles for eyes on the green construction paper and trace a squiggly smile
- Trace and cut out two smaller circles for inner eyes on the white construction paper
- Start gluing! We glued our eyes and smile on first. The we glued the eight legs
Last year, we did a similar craft and created a pumpkin. You can hole punch the crafts, add some string, and create a Halloween banner for your home.
i love this idea. i am sooo not crafty and i think even I could do this. thanks for sharing!
What a cute idea! Another easy craft I like to do with my grandson is making ghosts and hanging them on the trees!
This is very cute and looks easy enough for my 3 and 6 yr olds to master. I like that these are things we can easily find at home too. Thanks
I like this one. I have a 2 yr old and have been looking for fun Halloween ideas, but a lot of them are a little beyond his age. This one is perfect! Thank you for the idea, I’m sure my son will love it too!
This is so cute, I plan to try this with my grandchildren.
