7 Halloween Spider Craft For Kids
7 Halloween Spider Craft For Kids
Introduction
Hey there, kids! Are you looking for some Halloween spider crafts? Well, look no further. These easy-to-make spiders will add some spooky fun to your Halloween party.
Yarn Spiders
Yarn spiders are a simple spider craft that can be made in a variety of sizes, and are fun to make with kids. They’re also great for Halloween decorations, or as party favors for your little ones.
- Remember: when you cut yarn, always use sharp scissors. You don’t want to accidentally hurt your child!
- Make sure you have enough yarn to complete the project (you should have at least 10 times more than what’s required). You can use any color or combination of colors that you like.
- Cut off a length of yarn that is about 2 feet long (60 cm) and tie it into a loop at one end using an overhand knot or slipknot. This will become part of the body of your spider later on so make sure that it’s big enough for all three legs plus some extra room for sewing purposes later on if needed before continuing onto step two below
Paper Bag Spiders
- Use a paper bag and a marker to draw a spider’s body.
- Cut out the spider’s body.
- Use a marker to draw two eyes and cut them out. Attach the eyes to the spider’s body using glue or tape. Attach pipe cleaners as legs, if desired (see below).
Graveyard Spider Cookies
Ingredients:
- 1 cup flour
- 1/3 cup sugar
- Pinch of salt
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 egg whites, beaten until foamy (substitute with 1 egg or 2 tablespoons mayonnaise)
How to Make Spooky Halloween Spider Cookies:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare cookie sheets by coating them with nonstick cooking spray or line with parchment paper. In a large bowl, beat together the butter and sugars until creamy and fluffy, about 5 minutes by hand or 2 minutes using an electric mixer on medium speed. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition and scraping down sides of bowl between each addition; mix in vanilla extract at end of beating process. In another bowl combine flour, baking powder, salt; add half of dry mixture into batter then half beaten whites then remaining half dry ingredients until smooth without any lumps from butter being visible anymore before adding last additions only if necessary because you don’t want too much air in your dough anymore than there already is from using beaten eggs instead of separating yolks from whites first which makes them heavier so they sink faster than just plain milk alone would’ve done otherwise due only partially because most recipes call for whole milk instead anyway but mostly because we’re going back further here when they were made originally since this wouldn’t have been invented yet because we weren’t ready yet anyway due mostly because most people didn’t know how
Spooky Spider Craft
You will need:
- Plastic or paper spider
- Marker
- Paper straws or pipe cleaners for legs (optional)
Spider Web Window Clings
Window clings are a fun way to decorate your windows. They’re also a great project for kids, and they’ll get tons of use out of them throughout the year. Follow these easy steps to make spider web window clings:
- Decide whether you want to make a spider web on one window or all four windows in your home.
- Gather together all of the supplies needed for making the spider webs, including old newspapers, plates or bowls with water in them, fabric scraps (newspaper works well), paintbrushes and paint (black is best), glitter glue or other decorations if desired (optional).
- Lay down old newspapers all over the room where you’ll be working so that little pieces won’t go everywhere when it’s time for cleanup!
- Cover each plate/bowl with water and carefully lay down fabric scraps onto each one using tweezers so that none overlap too much; this will help keep them from sticking together while they dry out later on! You can also add glitter glue now if desired as well – but only do so after everything has been applied because otherwise it will wash away during rinsing which means having to reapply more later on…not something anyone wants happening here 😉
Pinecone Spider Craft
- Pinecone Spider Craft
- Materials:
- a pinecone (you can find these at the local craft store)
- yarn or string to make the legs of your spider (you can use twine, yarn, whatever you like!)
- a marker to draw on eyes and a mouth.
- Directions:
- Begin by drawing on your spider legs using a marker. If you’re using yarn or string to make your spider’s legs, this step will be much easier! Once you have them drawn out, cut them off with scissors so they look like tree branches (or something similar).
- Use a marker to draw on eyes and a mouth for your little friend! You can also add other details such as flowers or leaves if desired. Let dry before hanging up in front of the window for everyone else to enjoy!
Giant Spiders to Hang Up Outside
- Spider Webbing
- Spider Body
- Spider Legs
- Eyes (optional)
- Spider Webs (also optional)
- Glue 7-8 legs to each side of spider body, glue eyes on top of body, wrap with plastic cup or bag, and then tape it down!

You can make them for different occasions too—like bringing them to school during Halloween week or creating them at home for an upcoming family reunion with lots of kids!
It’s also fun trying to figure out what kind of spider you want based on the age group it will appeal most to; maybe it should look like an emoji? Perhaps someone from Sesame Street ? There’s no limit here!
