We’re getting stuck on these fun Sticky Spider Webs. As we throw our flies at the web, we try to see if they’ll get caught or if they can get out and fly away.
Supplies for Sticky Webs:
- Glue Dots – you could use glue dot strips or double sided tape
- dark paper – preferably cardstock
- white crayon
- flies – not real ones! we used black yarn pieces and paper bits
First, draw your web. I like to use white crayons on dark paper so it shows up and looks like a spider’s web.
Then place your glue dots all over. It sort of makes it look like there’s dew on the web. We used a little double-sided tape too. Then cut some little yarn pieces for flies. We also made some flies from rolled up black paper. If your glue is really sticky, I thought maybe to use raisins as bugs.
Now get your flies out and ready to launch. Let ‘um “fly”! It took a few times to get them to stick, those pesky flies just didn’t want to be caught. Have fun getting icky and sticky.

My 5 and 3 year olds loved this! We used Elmer’s Gel glue…it is sticky for a long long time and leaves a nice raised design when dry. Thanks!
