<title type="html">A Fun Halloween Craft For Kids</title>

<content type="html" >&lt;BR&gt;This is one of my favorite Halloween crafts for kids. It is&lt;BR&gt;quick and simple, can be done with a crowd if necessary, and is&lt;BR&gt;an excellent way to practice cutting and fine motor skills with&lt;BR&gt;younger children. Older kids can let their imaginations take &lt;BR&gt;over and create some really wacky spiders!&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;You will need:&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Black paper&lt;BR&gt;Scissors&lt;BR&gt;Glue or sticky-tape&lt;BR&gt;Googly eyes (optional) or scraps of paper and pens&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Instructions:&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Cut a rectangle of paper approximately 3 inches by 3 1/2 &lt;BR&gt;inches. Fold the short side down about an inch to make a&lt;BR&gt;crease, then open up again.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Turn the paper so that the crease is horizontal, then cut the&lt;BR&gt;paper in 7 straight lines up to the crease to create eight &lt;BR&gt;spider&#39;s legs. For younger children, draw in the lines for them&lt;BR&gt;to practice cutting on. For older children, show them how to&lt;BR&gt;make the first cut in the middle, dividing the area below the&lt;BR&gt;crease into 2 halves. Then show them how to divide each half &lt;BR&gt;again to make quarters, then the quarters to make eighths.&lt;BR&gt;There is no need to be too accurate.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Now wrap the spider around the child&#39;s finger and fasten with&lt;BR&gt;sticky-tape or glue. Remove the spider again and decorate - &lt;BR&gt;either with scraps of paper or with googly eyes. Put back on&lt;BR&gt;the finger and bend the legs into shape or curl them around a&lt;BR&gt;pencil.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Variations:&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Hang the spiders up! Simply cut a length of black yarn (wool) &lt;BR&gt;and attach inside the head of the spider with a small piece of&lt;BR&gt;sticky-tape.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Make smaller versions of these spiders to decorate the ends of&lt;BR&gt;Halloween pencils.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Wrap small spiders around straws to decorate your Halloween &lt;BR&gt;table! Make some bigger spiders and scatter them around the&lt;BR&gt;table as well.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Cut a small slit on either side of the spider&#39;s head and insert&lt;BR&gt;a name card to turn these spiders into spooky place markers!&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Once the body of the spider has been made but before&lt;BR&gt;decorating, wrap a black pipe cleaner around the head of the&lt;BR&gt;spider to give a furry effect. The protruding end of the pipe&lt;BR&gt;cleaner can be curled into a hook shape, which makes the spider &lt;BR&gt;easy to suspend from shelves, the tops of doors, and other&lt;BR&gt;spooky places! Stick googly eyes on top of the pipe cleaner.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;About The Author: Lindsay Small is the owner of Activity&lt;BR&gt;Village, packed full of fun and educational activities for &lt;BR&gt;kids.
