"  Quickly craft a creepy, crawly spider costume for your little one by using old pool noodles and a bathmat to create the effect of spider legs.   Skill Level: Beginner   Materials: Small bathmat with rubber backing; scissors; 3 swimming pool noodles; serrated steak knife; twelve 6- inch lengths of pipe cleaners; hot-glue gun; six 3- or 4-inch plastic food lids; 3- to 4-inch- wide black tape; red long- sleeve shirt; black pajamas (you can substitute thermals).   1. Fold mat in half (or cut a rectangle to width of shoulder); cut up back and make a neck hole in the center so that the mat goes over child&amp;#039;s shoulders.   2. Cut noodles in half; slice 7/8 of the way though each tube in two places so tube bends downward, creating three segments for the spider legs. Reinforce connection of segments by sticking 6-inch- long pipe cleaners into ends of the tube foam.   3. Cut three holes in the mat on both sides where legs should be, making them the same size as the tubes. Push an end of each noodle through each hole.   4. Cut six circles from plastic food lids slightly larger than holes. Glue the circles to ends of the tubes, securing them to the mat surface underneath.   5. Add black-tape stripes around tubes and shirtsleeves as shown. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
