Pom-pom Spiders

I have have been given two of these from students in my class and I thought they were so cool and knew that my boys would LOVE to make their own.

So I rummaged through our craft supplies and found:

big pom-poms, black pipe cleaners (mine were already cut in 1/2 from another project), sticker wiggle eyes, pony beads, and my glue gun.

 First the boys stuck their wiggle eyes onto their pom-poms.

Then I glued their legs on. (It's hot glue and burns are no fun!)

Then the legs were bent into their desired position.

Then I realized that I needed to hot glue the eyes on after all. Oops!

To add a little something to them the boys strung pony beads (orange, green, and purple) onto the legs. I was so impressed with Ash he did his all by himself! Nice fine motor skills, Ash!
