Not-So-Spooky Halloween Craft: Giant Sticky Spider Webs

If you are looking for a not-so-spooky Halloween craft idea, then look no further than this simple giant sticky spider webs art project. It's a great idea for kids of all ages, and an excellent activity for working on fine motor scissor-skills.

These spider webs look fantastic as window decorations too. So you'll definitely want to get your kids to make a few of them to help decorate for Halloween!

Here is what you'll need for this giant sticky spider webs activity:

• clear contact paper — I use vinyl book protectors from Dollarama
• white yarn
• scissors
• plastic spiders — we used colorful ones, but little black ones will look really great too!
• tape

Tape the contact paper, sticky side out, to a window. Set out the rest of the materials for the kids to let them create their own spider web designs.

Before my boys made their spider webs, we first looked at some photos of spider webs for inspiration. This step is completely optional, but my kids found it interesting. Then, once they had their inspiration webs in mind, they started cutting and positioning the white yarn on the contact paper.

Once the spider webs were complete, the kids added some spiders to the web. We used colorful spiders because they're just plain fun, but feel free to use whatever spider decorations you can find.
