I think I'm going to try to make these with the kids in the nursery at church once it get's closer to halloween. We'll see how it goes. Try it and see if it's a success for you.


What you'll need:
Black construction paper
Wiggle eyes
White paper (for "fangs")
Scissors
Tape
Yellow construction paper
White crayon
Glue
Pencil

How to make it:
Fold black construction paper in half.
Along folded edge, lay child's hand palm down (midway through palm) and trace fingers with white crayon. Cut out the outline of the fingers.
Unfold and you’ll have a complete image of a spider with eight legs. Turn the spider over and, with the pencil, roll the legs around it – this makes the legs curl under and gives a more creepy, crawly effect.
Cut a one inch strip of black paper from the remaining scraps and form it into a circle for the bracelet. At the appropriate length, tape the ends together.
Attach the bracelet to the underside of the spider using tape or glue.
Glue the wiggle eyes and "fangs" to the spider’s head.
Cut a small diamond shape from the yellow construction paper and glue to the spider’s back.
Place the child’s wrist through the bracelet.
