- Hi. Welcome to Elmo's World.
Guess what Elmo is wondering about today!
Wait for it. (thoughtful music)
Wait for it!
(laughs) Spiders!
Hello there miss spider. (flute plays)
Aw. (laughs)
Boy, spiders are so cool.
Elmo wants to learn all about spiders.
Oh, let's ask Elmo's friend Smartie.
Let's call her together.
- [Elmo And Children] Oh Smartie!
(web creaks)
♪ The itsy bitsy spider ♪
(Elmo and Smartie laugh)
- Oh, Smartie's pretending to be a spider!
Which is great, because Elmo wants to learn
all about spiders.
- Well, what do we do to learn something new?
- [Elmo, Smartie And Children] We Look it up!
- [Smartie] Searching the web for spiders.
(fun music)
Spiders are a special kind of animal called an arachnid,
which means they have eight legs.
And did you know spiders have four pairs of eyes?
Spiders have tiny hairs on their feet
that help them hold on tight so they can walk upside down.
They can spin webs.
The webs are sticky so the spider can catch insects
for food.
Some spiders are big, some spiders are teeny tiny.
Spiders live in all kinds of places.
Some spiders live in the desert.
Some spiders live in the jungle.
Some skate on water.
Some live in underground burrows,
and some spiders live in gardens.
They help the plants by catching bugs in their webs.
(Smartie burbles)
- Wow.
Elmo didn't know spiders were so helpful.
- Ooh, my Smartie Sense is tingling.
(web whooshing and creaking)
Gotta go Elmo! (Smartie whooshing)
- (laughing) Goodbye Smartie!
Boy.
Spiders can live in so many different places.
(laughing) Hey!
That gives Elmo an idea!
(laughing) Oh, let's play a game together!
Yeah! Come on, come on! (bouncy music)
(crayon scraping)
Elmo wonders if we can find all three spiders.
Are you ready?
Let's (exciting music)
play!
Do you see any spiders?
- [Children] over there!
- [Child 1] Look in the garden.
- [Elmo] Hello spider. (flute playing)
Do you see any more spiders?
How about by the pond? (bell dinging)
(Children laughing)
- [Child 2] That's a duck.
- [Elmo] Oops. Sorry, duck. (horn sounds)
(bell dinging)
- [Child 3] There, in the sand.
- [Elmo] That's right!
Hello spider. (flute playing)
Let's fine one more spider.
Hmm, Elmo doesn't see any.
(wind whistling) (bell dinging)
- [Children] There it is!
- [Elmo] Yay, we did it!
Nice web, spider.
(cloud poofing) (Elmo laughing)
Boy.
Elmo loves that spiders make their very own webs.
Oh, and that makes Elmo wonder even more.
Does Mr. Noodle know about spiderwebs?
Oh, let's ask him.
Hey Mr. Noodle!
(Children laughing) (Ms. Noodle squeaking)
- [Children] Ms. Noodle!
- [Elmo] It's Mr. Noodle's sister, Ms. Noodle!
Hi Ms. Noodle.
Ms. Noodle, do you know about spiderwebs?
(flute plays) You do?
Oh, show us how to build a spider web Ms. Noodle.
- [Children] Yeah, show us how!
(accordion playing) (Children laughing)
- [Elmo] Ms. Noodle, that's an accordion!
You're playing music, not building a spiderweb.
Elmo will give you a hint.
Spider webs are sticky.
- [Children] That's honey.
- [Elmo] Ah, Ms. Noodle, Honey is sticky.
But you don't use honey to build spiderwebs either.
Oh, you have an idea.
(Ms. Noodle whistling)
(Elmo and children laughing)
Schmoodle looks very nice in his spider costume.
But...
(flute playing) (dog barking)
(webs whooshing) (Elmo laughing)
Now that's a spiderweb!
Thanks Schmoodle! (schmoodle barks)
Thank you Ms. Noodle.

it makes him want to dance.
