We're ending spider week with a snack your little one builds and counts. One round food goes in the middle, and eight long pieces become the legs. Count them on, count them off and eat them up!

Spiders make webs by crossing lines of silk. People weave cloth the same way: one line goes over, the next goes under. In Ghana, in West Africa, there's a famous story that weavers learned to make beautiful kente cloth by watching a spider spin its web.

The Itsy Bitsy Spider by Iza Trapani takes the song everyone knows and keeps it going. The little spider climbs a spout, a kitchen wall, a pail, a rocking chair and a tree before she finally spins her web. It's a sing-along book kids ask for again and again.

Beep, beep! The spiders need a ride to their web. Your little one loads the number of spiders you call out into a dump truck, drives them across the room and dumps them at the web. Then they count to check the delivery.
