Dancing Spiders

We did spider crafts this weekend! First we made these awesome Spider Webs and then our adorable Dancing Spiders. If you’re looking for some Halloween fun, you have to make these creepy Dancing Spiders!

You will need:
Popsicle Stick or any stick
Stretchy String (any string or yarn would be fine)
Pipe Cleaners
Googly Eyes
Eye Hook (small jewelry kind)
2 Inch Foam Ball
Black Paint

Paint your foam ball black. Once dry, add googly eyes and a mouth. I carved the smile into the foam ball. You could also use white paint.

Screw the eye hook into the top of the ball. If you don’t have an eyehook, you could thread the string through the ball with a thread needle and tie a knot at the bottom. 

Push your pipe cleaners into the side of the foam ball as legs.

Thread your string through the eye hook and tie a knot. Tie the other end of the string around your stick. Our string was about 18 inches long.

Bounce your stick up and down, left and right to make your spider dance!

Even our Captain Hook skeleton got in on the fun!
