One of Ethan’s vitamin supplement comes with a sponge in the bottle. Each time we open a new bottle, we need to take out the sponge. After some time, I see that I have so many of these nice round sponges and wondered what can I do with them. Today, let’s make good use out of it. Let’s make a spider, an albino spider that is π

Albino Spider

You'll need a round sponge, a white pipe cleaner, a red pipe cleaner and two large googly eyes

Glue the googly eyes onto the sponge

Cut the white pipe cleaner into smaller pieces. You'll need eight. Bend them and glue four on each side

Cut a short piece of red pipe cleaner. Bend in the middle and glue as the mouth. Your albino spider is done π
Incy Wincy Spider climb up the water spout.. Let’s paint a spider today π

Handprint Spider

You'll need black water colour for the spider. You may also use dark brown or any other colour your child wishes his/her spider to be π

Paint your palm and four fingers black.

Stamp the painted palm onto a piece of paper.

You'll get one half of the spider.

Paint the other side of your palm and the four fingers.

Stamp it next to the first half.

You'll get a complete spider now.

Grip your fist and paint it black.

Stamp it on the body of the spider.

Paint your fingertips yellow and dot it around the head as spider has many eyes all over.

Paint your fingertip red and dot it on the yellow dots and your spider is done π

Yvonne of MyDiaryMyBlog shared with us this cute craftΒ made by her kids from recycling old buttons taken out from old clothings. All they needed were old buttons, UHU glue, sequins and soft wires.

This craft requires adult’s supervision as buttons and tiny sequins are being used. Please ensure the little ones do not put them into their mouth.
