Cardboard Tube Spiderman
Are you excited for the new Spiderman movie coming out soon? We sure are! Spiderman was the first “superhero” my oldest son admired. When he was a toddler, he used to pretend to sling web and climb walls while saving the city from evil villains!
My kids love making characters out of cardboard tubes. The round, chunky shape is perfect for small hands. Our cardboard tube Spiderman has scaled block towers, made webs out of ribbon, and has even taken rides on remote controlled cars…err, I mean superhero vehicles.

Glue Spiderman’s eyes on top of the mask with the round part on the bottom.
Next, use the black marker to draw Spiderman’s costume on the red cardboard tube. Cut 2 flat pieces of blue construction paper to wrap around the sides of Spiderman’s costume.
Next cut a blue strip of paper, slightly angled on the top. Glue it to the bottom of the cardboard tube. Use the black marker to draw muscles on the blue paper, and then you’re done!
