The weather has been cooling, and the rain is starting. With the change in weather the creepy-crawly spiders are starting to find their way into the house, it gives me the shivers! It’s tough to be a Mom and have to pretend not to be afraid of them! So in honour of all the Moms (and Dads) out there who put on a brave face, I thought I’d feature these easier-to-handle, cute and educational mostly sparkly spiders.

There was an outstanding 183 ideas linked up last week with Mom’s Library! It’s so great to see it growing! To see all of the great ideas submitted, be sure to check out last week’s Mom’s Library where I focused on Autumn Nature Fun.
