Hermie & Friends: Webster, the Scaredy Spider (2004)

Webster the Scaredy Spider

In Max Lucado's "Hermie and Friends" series, bugs deliver a message to kids. They enjoy the story and parents know they can trust the publisher. The series is popular at this library! July 26, 2008

A good way to teach some truth about God

I found this video really well done. And also I think it is a good way to teach to our children some important truth about God, having fun. My little boy is just 17 months old and probably he doesn't understand too much about the movie at the moment, but I have to say that he has a lot of fun looking at the nice characters and listening to the nice songs. I really enjoy it as well. May 13, 2007

Timeless Truth for Kids (and their Parents)

The Hermie & Friends series is a fun learning and growing tool for Christian parents. In this episode, kids meet Webster, a bright young spider who gives kids a plethora of vocabulary lessons. Wordsmiths will certainly appreciate the dictionary humor.

Because this is a Christian video, some may object to the use of a brief reference that the garden will "look haunted" by Webster's webs when the garden bugs are discussing their fears of having a "scary spider" in their home. Also, as noted by another reviewer there is a reference to some colorful language (a**) by the Actor Tim Conway in the "extras" which is inappropriate for intended young audience of these videos. My son (age 4) likes to see the faces behind his favortie characters so it is a little disappointing. February 24, 2007

Kids Learn Another Valuable Hermie Lesson

This is yet another winner in the Hermie & Friends series. My two year old is especially afraid of the dark and this lesson about praying to God when you're scared really helped him understand that he can take his fears to God. I appreciate a DVD lesson that kids will remember and one that stimulates a follow up discussion, even in young children like my son.
Thank you Hermie and friends, you make the lessons of life fun for kids of all ages! December 3, 2004
