Spider Costume - easy to make



Items Needed:
  • 1x pair of Black pants
  • 1x long sleeved black shirt (we used a long-sleeved plain cotton t-shirt for indoors and a polo-fleece as it was only 4 degrees outside at night)
  • Two pairs of black knee-high socks (stuffed with plastic bags)
  • Black wool (for the spider web effect)
  • Extras:- a spider cape and spider hat (from Dollarama)


  1. Stitch or tape the stuffed black socks into place, along the side of the black shirt (as spider legs)
  2. Stitch the wool in place, to the "legs" (this creates an effect of a spider web, and helps lift the legs up when the child holds up their arms) and VOILA!
Note: the 1st and 4th set of legs are the shirt and pant legs
