Lollipop Spiders: Easy Halloween Suckers for Kids

This post may contain affiliate links – please read my disclosure statement.

I’ve been wanting to make these Tootsie Pop Spiders for years! Whenever I share a photo of this idea in my Facebook groups, everyone loves them and passes the idea along. I finally decided this was the year I was going to make my own.

My favorite part is how they each end up with a different personality. Just changing where you place the eyes or how you bend the legs gives them a whole new look. The cut pipe cleaners wrap around the stick to create the spider’s legs with very little fuss.

I used round Tootsie Pops, but you can use any round lollipop. Flat, circle-shaped suckers would work too—I just like the round ones best for the spider’s body. And since the wrappers stay on, these are a craft and a treat to enjoy afterward!

Why You’ll Love These Spider Lollipops

- Craft and treat. The lollipop slides out of the legs when you’re ready to eat it.

- Simple supplies. Made with wrapped lollipops, pipe cleaners, and googly eyes.

- Quick assembly. Just cut, wrap, bend, and glue.

- Fun to share. A cute idea for classmates, Halloween parties, or trick-or-treaters...
