Instructions

• Pour rice into your sensory bin. I like to use a mixture of purple, orange, green and black for my sensory bases. Follow the instructions in this blog post to dye your own rice.
• Add the mini erasers on top of the rice.

• Next, pull your spiderweb across the sensory bin and pull it tight. Spread the cobweb out a bit.
• I use scissors to make little snips inside the cobweb so that there are holes for students to go through.

• Place spiders on top of the spider web.

• Provide students with jumbo tweezers.
• Students need to use their tweezers to thread through the spiderweb to try and rescue the Halloween erasers.
