Spider Lollipops Kids Craft
Honestly, these spider lollipops are almost too adorable to eat! I have a pretty good feeling that the kids won’t have any problem tearing into them and eating them though. One thing I love about this craft is that you can make a variety of spiders with different colors. You can even use different types of suckers if you want.
Materials
Tootsie Roll Pops
Wiggle eyes
Black pipe cleaners
Hot glue gun + hot glue sticks
Scissors
Directions
1. Take two pipe cleaners and cut them in half. Place them centered on a flat surface, edges aligned.
2. Place a lollipop about ⅓ of the way in from the edge of the aligned pipe cleaners.
3. Take all of the longer sides together and wrap them all the way around the lollipop stick.
4. Spread apart each end so it begins to take the shape of a spider.
5. Bend the ends of each pipe cleaner down in a 90-degree angle to make the spider legs.
6. Use a hot glue gun to glue on two wiggle eyes to complete your spider lollipops kids craft. Enjoy!
