Story Inspired Craft Kit: The Very Busy Spider

Ever since I started this blog, I'm very fortunate that lots of friends have supported me by telling me they like the paper crafts I designed. They share my blog and Facebook page with others, which make me feel confident and proud of what I do with Big E and Little E.

One month ago, I was chatting with a mommy friend about the idea of starting my own business - teaching a paper craft class or making craft kits as party favors. Although it was just a random chat and a preliminary idea, she jumped right in asking me to make her little boy's 4th birthday party favors. How lucky am I!!!

I prepared a paper craft inspired by Eric Carle's storybook "The Very Busy Spider". The little guests who receive it as a party favor can simply look at the complete project photo in the front to finish the project independently or with parents' help.

I cut out the pieces for making a spider and use googly eyes and craft pipe cleaners for legs. 

Kids can color/cut/glue the animals showing up in the story on the appropriate line.

 Little E made this project at home first.Here is the complete look of the project!

I hope the little guests will enjoy this paper craft as much as we do.
