Description

Based on the award-winning book by David Kirk, Miss Spider's Tea Party offers young children eight games that encourage cognitive thinking skills. Miss Spider is featured inviting her insect friends to a tea party, which they cannot attend until their posed dilemmas are solved. Choosing the order of invite, children help characters like Grampy Spider and Mr. Ant solve their problem and attend the tea party. Skill levels of easy, medium, and hard can be chosen to suit age appropriateness and the variety of games include Firefly Concentration, Find the Butterflies, Grampy Spider's Picture Perfect, Assemble the Cricket Band, Caterpillar and Moth Obstacle Course, Beetle's River Crossing, Mr. Ant's Maze, and the Bee Game. The activities in each game are essentially matching and memorization oriented with the exception of Find the Butterflies in which the object is to find butterflies hidden within different scenes. Caterpillar and Moth Obstacle Course, and Mr. Ant's Maze are both maze-type games, while Beetle's River Crossing is similar to Frogger. Miss Spider and the other characters exchange rhyming dialogue and then give instructions for each game. The invitations are accepted when all eight games are finished. The game ends as credits roll over footage of Miss Spider's tea party with all her friends in attendance as she extends one last invitation to the child to play again.
