🕷️🤔 OMG! Why do spiders have 8 legs and you only have 2? 🦵✨

from Let's Ask! - Ask Pia & Ben - Little Thinkers!

Elena asks a brilliant question about why spiders have eight legs when she only has two! Ben and Pia explore the amazing world of spider bodies and discover how every creature is perfectly designed for their special adventures. Did you know spider silk is stronger than steel wire of the same thickness? If you could make a pencil-thick rope from spider silk, it could lift a car! Fun Fact: Each spider leg has tiny hairs that can taste and smell - it's like having eight tongues and eight noses all at once! What creature would you design and how many legs would you give it?
