These cute little Halloween spiders make the perfect classroom craft or just an adorable decoration for home.


They also make a great craft for learning about spiders in your homeschool classroom, perfect for toddlers, preschoolers, and early elementary-aged children. Let's be real, even I find these little paper plate crafts fun to put together, especially when you are enjoying the time spent crafting with your kiddos.


So let's get ready to have some creepy crawly fun and learn how to make a paper plate spider craft today.

Supplies needed for this paper plate Halloween craft

  • Paper Plates (You can use dessert sized paper plates as well as dinner plates to create different size spiders)
  • Black Paint (We painted them black but you could certainly paint them in any of your favorite colors.)
  • Paintbrush
  • Black Pipe Cleaners
  • Red Googly Eyes
  • Glue

How to make an easy paper plate rockin' spider craft

Paint the paper plate black and allow it to dry completely.



Fold the plate in half.



Twist four black pipe cleaners together in the middle, the spread the ends apart to create legs.



Glue the center of the leg bundle inside the fold of the paper plate.



Bend the pipe cleaners to create zig-zags.



Glue several red googly eyes to the front of the spider.



Set the spider upright on the ends of the paper plate. Push down one side of the plate with your finger to make the spider rock.
