Today was National Chocolate Covered Insects Day!! Since the sound of crunching on REAL bugs didn't sound too appealing we decided to dip gummy spiders instead.
First we melted a cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips in the microwave.
Second Collin dipped the spiders into the chocolate. He had to sample a few on the way...
Line 'em up in a row!
The leftover chocolate can be used to make fun designs on the waxed paper.
A chocolate web for my little 8-legged friend.
Pause for a cute picture...
Whoa, we got chocolate webs everywhere!!
Now is the time to eat the spider in the chocolate cocoon.
Who knew spiders could taste so good?

What a great idea. I'm gonna have to try it. Worms would be good too!!
What a fun project! Your boy looks absolutely delighted. I have to copy that for little nieces and nephews.
