Halloween Spider Rock Craft for Kids.
As a kid, I loved doing Halloween crafts! Halloween itself is really just one evening, so doing crafts during October helped spread out the festivities and was always something I looked forward to. If you have kids that can’t wait for Halloween, then they’ll love this Rock Spider Kids Craft. It’s easy, inexpensive, and so much fun!

While this is a great craft for kids who are old enough to use hot glue, this craft could also just be done to make some fun Halloween decor for your home! Consider laying a few of these cute DIY Halloween rock spiders on your mantel, your bookcase, or on other surfaces around your home as you get close to Halloween.
