Can I start by saying that this was WAY harder than I thought it would be. I saw a pin on Pinterest, and it was seriously creepy. Totally looked like spiders. Mine, not so much. I have made 3 batches, and none have looked much better than this, and I used a different cookie recipe and type of chocolate chip for each. So, I am going to say it was Photo Shopped.  The pin had no link, so I can’t say for sure. Anyway, we still had fun with this, and since I absolutely love eating chocolate chip cookies, I am not going to complain. Plus it does look like spiders, just not as realistic as the Pinterest one.

And, if you want a fun story to go with these delicious treats, try:My Monster Mama Loves Me So This was one of my favorite reads. It was about a monster and how he knows his mama loves him. Darling. Anyway, one of the things the mama does that shows him that she loves him is give him cookies full of bugs! How cute, right? So the perfect story for this activity. I was so thrilled to find it.
