We really love reading and it's always fun to create crafts and activities to go along with our favorite books. Today I'm joining forces with other kid bloggers to present a
Halloween Read and Play Blog hop! This means that today, over 25 kid bloggers are posting great activities and crafts to go along with Halloween themed books. (You can see links to all the great ideas at the bottom of the post!) We made a
DIY spider costume for our post. It was inspired by a beloved book character, Splat the Cat!

Have you heard of the
Splat the Cat Series? We love these books. For Halloween, we read
Scaredy-Cat, Splat!
I don't want to ruin the story for you, so here's just a snippet to explain today's craft. Splat the Cat's initial costume gets ruined and his mom has to quickly whip up a
homemade spider costume from socks and string.
I love the idea of making something from nothing, so we tried our hand at quickly whipping up a spider costume just like Splat the Cat's mom!
Let's get making!
