Easy Styrofoam Spiders Craft for Kids

Halloween· Holiday· Kids craft

15 Oct

Are you looking for a fun activity for kids? These not-too-spooky styrofoam spiders craft are easy to make and will keep the kids busy for hours!

We had our nieces in town recently and wanted to celebrate with a fun craft!

Our daughters love to get out the paint and disappear into my craft room for hours.

I handed them a pack of styrofoam balls and some pipe cleaners and this is what they came up with: the cutest little family of foam spiders!

  • 2″ foam balls
  • 4 acrylic paint colors (we used ‘Lavender Fields’ purple, ‘Pumpkin Patch’ orange, ‘Ebony’ black + ‘Cottonball’ white)
  • 2 pipe cleaner per spider (we used a multi-color pack)

That’s all there is to it, so easy and super fun! It’ll keep the kids busy all afternoon…we had a whole army of spiders all around the house.

They even turned it into a game of hide the spiders and see who could find the most the fastest.

    I love it! I am making some of these with my own little nieces Halloween Eve. I think I’ll use a marker and make a big grin with lots of teeth on these cute arachnids. Fun! : – D Thanks for the easy tutorial!
