Giant
Web Hunt
Everyone loves a treasure hunt, especially when it means unraveling
this web of fun! For each guest, you will need a small gift or favor
bag item and a long piece of yarn. Before the party, cut several pieces
of yarn about 15-20 ft. long and attach a small toy to the end of
each one. Hide the toys in drawers, cupboards, under chairs, etc.
Slowly stretch each length of yarn around the room, wrapping them
around furniture and intertwining them with other pieces until you
have used all the pieces. This will create a massive web!
Attach the name of a guest to the end of each piece of yarn. When
the children find their names they may begin to unravel the spider
web. They're sure to giggle as they get caught in this giant spider
web, and they'll definitely love the prizes at the end!
Spider Web Relay
Elusive webs keep kids one step ahead in this fun relay game! Before
the game, draw and cut out four spider webs from posterboard. Each
web should be approximately 12-15" in diameter. To begin the
game, divide your guests into two teams and establish a start/finish
line. Give the first player on each team two webs. The first person
in line must place a spider web in front of him and step on it. Then,
he must place the second spider web in front of the first and step
from the first web to the second, and so on. This continues until
he has walked across the room, around a designated point, and returned
to his team. The next player in line must do the same, until each
player on the team has had a turn. The team to finish first wins!
Face Painting
Children's face painting makes them feel a part of the action and
is sure to bring smiles to all! Make sure you have plenty of red
and black paint if your guests want a look to rival their web-zinging
super hero. Draw Spider-Man's triangular eyes on each child, or
paint a spider or a web on their cheek or hand.
Pin
Spider-Man on the Web
Your guests will love this fun twist on a classic game! Before the
party, draw a large spider web on a big piece of cardboard and post
it on the wall. Then, print out several images of Spider-Man from
the Internet or make copies from a coloring book.
At the party, let the guests color their Spider-Man pictures, and
help them cut out the images when finished. To play, attach tape
to the back of each Spider-Man. Gently blindfold each guest one
at a time and spin them around. Point them toward the web and let
them walk forward to stick their Spider-Man picture on it. The child
who places his or her Spider-Man image closest to the center of
the web wins!
Web Maze
This crazy game will keep everyone laughing! Tell your guests to
form a circle and face one another. Instruct the children to extend
their right hands into the ring and take a hold of someone else's
hand. Then, tell them to do the same with their left hands. Challenge
your guests to untangle the "web" by stepping over or
ducking under others, and turning around. Whatever the children
do, they must not let go of one another's hands until the web is
untangled!
