Welcome friends! I’m so ecstatic that you landed on today’s Paper Plate Halloween Spider kids craft idea!!! It’s going to be simple fun for Halloween but it’s not scary at all! Promise!
If you haven’t noticed – I’ve been on a roll lately sharing kid friendly Halloween crafts on the blog. You guys seems to be enjoying it, so I’ll continue what I’m doing 😉
Although I’m normally not a spider person {I tend to jump on chairs & scream like a little girl} we recently made a Paper Plate Spider Kids Craft in honor of the upcoming “spook-tacular” holiday.
