Directions for Glitter Spider Web
- Print template on pg. 3 of my Halloween Activity Pack onto black construction paper (or draw a spider web with a pencil). I used orange construction paper because I ran out of black, oops. But, black does look best.
- Cover spider web with a steady stream of glue.
- Sprinkle glitter liberally over the glue.
- Pat excess glitter into the garbage and let glue dry completely.
Directions for Watercolor Spider Web
- Print spider web template on pg. 3 of my Halloween Activity Pack onto white paper (or draw a spider web onto white paper).
- Color over spider web with a white crayon. Make sure you get a nice thick line with the crayon.
- Use watercolors to paint completely over the spider web.
- Let paint dry completely.
My kids make a glitter spider web every year and it’s consistently a favorite. Don’t miss your chance to get this and lots of other fun Halloween crafts and activities from my Halloween Activity Pack.

Frequently Asked Questions
What age are these crafts and activities for?
Most work well for toddlers and preschoolers, roughly 18 months through age 4. You can simplify the steps for younger kids or add detail for older ones.
My toddler has a short attention span. Will they finish?
Maybe not, and that is okay. A few minutes of focus is normal. Let your child do as much as they want and stop while it is still fun.
How do I make crafts more educational?
Talk through what you are doing as you go. Name the colors, count the pieces, or point out the shapes. The conversation is where a lot of the learning happens.
