You can’t have Halloween without plastic spiders or the plastic spider rings, at least not in our house. The kids always request those and vampire fangs.
Last year the kids enjoyed a fine motor threading activity using our plastic spider rings that I set up, so I turned to one my of favorite places (Pinterest) for more fun filled spider activities.
Not only are these spider activities lots of fun, but they also offer kids the opportunity to explore science and math, build motor skills, and more.
