Created following a grant from the Science and Technology Promotion Fund and administered by The Royal Society of New Zealand, this easy to use website is aimed at 2-6 year old children and their teachers to provide interesting facts and figures about spiders that can be found in New Zealand.

This educational site provides a fact sheet on the spider. It covers information from their appearance, to their behaviour as well as their impact on the ecosystem. Links from this page direct to you information of a similar format on all sorts of other insects.

Children of Pocantico Hills Central School in New York have put together this interesting site dedicated to the spider. This site is easy to use for youngsters but just an informative for the adult wishing to learn more about the spider.
