My preschooler really enjoys watching the movie, Charlotte’s Web which gave me the idea to buy the book so they can practice reading.
It’s important to encourage your child to read at any age!
If you’re looking for awesome spider books for your children to read. We highly recommend the following:
- Charlotte’s Web
- I’m Trying to Love Spiders

3. Learning Letters and Numbers
If you are teaching your little one their ABC’s and counting numbers, this free printable spider drawing craft will help you!
Once your child is done making this easy spider craft template, sit with your little one and take turns counting the spider’s legs.
As time goes by, your little learner will be counting big numbers and they will be adding and subtracting numbers before you know it.
This simple printable spider craft template will also encourage your child to practice writing letter S as well as pronouncing it correctly.
Print a traceable upper and lowercase letter S worksheet for your preschooler to work on their writing skills.
Aside from “spider”, ask your kids what else are the words that start with letter S.
4. Easy DIY Spider Crafts
Making this free printable spider craft template inspires us to create different spider crafts from recycled materials we already have in our house.
First, have your kindergartener paint the paper plate, use eight pipe cleaners for the spider’s legs and glue eight googly eyes.
Now, let’s make a smaller version of spiders!
We use colorful pom pom as the spider, glue small paper strips for the legs and some small googly eyes.
You can either attach this cute spider on a popsicle stick, straw or yarn to pretend-play that it’s moving.
