Halloween or Fall Carnival Booth Idea - Spiders Web
Supplies: Large spiders net made of black rope (see below) and clothes pins for hanging
A place to hang the net – underneath or between two trees, a low ceiling etc.
Large Stuffed Bugs for tossing - (see below)
Containers or baskets to place on one side of the Spiders Web to catch tossed bugs or tossed spiders
Three different prizes, consolation, medium and top prizes
How to Play: Before the carnival, be sure to set the net up so that it is suspended in the air and has several feet behind it to allow room for containers for bugs to land in. Children stand behind a line about 4-6 feet from the net. (Younger children may be 3-4 feet away)
Players are given three stuffed bugs to try to toss from one side of the Spiders Web into the containers on the other side of the Spiders Web.
The object of this carnival game is to not have the insects or spiders get trapped or stopped by the Spiders Web.
If no bugs make it into the containers on the other side, the player receives a consolation prize.If one or two bugs make it into the containers on the other side – the player receives the middle prize.If all three bugs make it into the containers on the other side -- the player receives the top prize.
Note: Placing at least one of your containers behind the net near the center is the most challenging for kids. Like all of our games, we recommend that you try it out after you set up this game to get the best placement of the web, containers and where the kids stand so this carnival game is not too hard or too easy!
