Spooky Spider Handprint Craft

Thanks to Hali for contributing this project -- Kaitlyn loves hers!!

I have a craft you may like to add. It is a spider made of the children's hand prints (from black tempera paint).

You're done!  You can hang from anywhere! 

I did this with my dayhome kids ages 6 months to 5 years, and they all loved it.
