itsy bitsy spider
Nursery rhyme arachnid
The itsy bitsy spider is a children's nursery rhyme and finger-play song about a spider climbing up a water spout, getting washed out by rain, then climbing up again when the sun comes out.
The simple narrative of perseverance makes it a staple of early childhood: She sang "Itsy Bitsy Spider" while making the hand motions.
Also rendered as "itsy-bitsy," "incy wincy," or "eensy weensy."
