What You Need: Egg cups (for painting stuff, the cardboard ones would probably work better), paint (we use Crayola non toxic washable paints), pipe cleaners, glue, googley eyes and a marker.
What To Do: Lay out lots of paper and let your little one paint their cups. Once dry, tape pipe cleaner legs into the cup and glue or draw on eyes and a mouth. Voila - your own creepy crawly.
**As you can see in the picture, the paint started peeling off our spider when it was being played with - you can either use cardboard egg carton or use markers to colour a styrofoam egg cup. **
