Carlos and Phoebe can't decide if spiders are cool or creepy. Then, the kids are magically transported into a drive-in movie about a giant praying mantis. When a mad general takes Liz prisoner to use as mantis bait, Mrs. Frizzle turns the Magic School Bus into a spider. Together, the kids must try different methods for rescuing Liz and trapping the bad guys. In the process, they learn many fascinating facts about different kinds of spiders, including trap-door spiders and web-spinning spiders. They gain a new respect for nature's best trappers. As Mrs. Frizzle says, "The spider that snares the best, fares the best!" --Elisabeth Keating

5.0 out of 5 stars What kinds of traps do spiders use?, July 30, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: The Magic School Bus: Spins A Web [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This movie is a great movie for young children with an interst in bugs. Did you know that you are never more than three feet away from a spider? Did you know there are many different kinds of spiders that build different kinds of traps? This movie does a great job of educating and entertaining at the same time.

This review is from: The Magic School Bus: Spins A Web [VHS] (VHS Tape)
As an introduction to our spider unit, I show this awesome video to my developmental kindergarten class. They are "hooked" from the moment it starts. Science facts are presented in an interesting and easy-to-understand format. They love this video and often ask to see it again.

5.0 out of 5 stars entertaining and educational, June 28, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The Magic School Bus: Spins A Web [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I like the whole Magic School Bus series because it is educational without lecturing, yet it is not annoying like some other children's "educational" videos. This one about spiders is particularly good because it shows how these animals are beneficial to humans. At the end they have a section where they explain what in the video were facts and what were "pretend". It is the type orf show I want my daughter to watch.
