Miss Spider's Sunny Patch Friends is an animated program based on the children's books by David Kirk, which airs on Nick Jr. in the United States and on Treehouse TV in Canada. Each episode follows the everyday adventures of a family of bugs, who have made their home in what is called the Hollow Tree, led by the gentle, kind-hearted Miss Spider. The show gives young viewers a bug's-eye-view of a whimsical, woodsy wonderland.
The show touches on social and emotional themes that children will recognize from their own lives. The overarching theme is about the importance of getting along with others—our family, our friends, and members of our community. It is meant to serve as a model for children about how to go out into the world and learn to live with others.
Our gifts, they are many: We hop, fly and crawl. But kindness is the finest of all! - Miss Spider
