In this episode of the series, children will be introduced to members of the crustacean family. These interesting creatures are fascinating to watch, and in Animal Families for Children: The Octopus/The Crab/The Crayfish, viewers will learn the living habits and life cycles of three unique animals. The octopus has strong suction cups that are tools to capture prey and to help it move, climb, and defend itself. The peculiar locomotion of the crab is seen; its large shell protects soft inner parts. Crayfish look like miniature lobsters, and the tail meat is prized by gourmets. Its threatening claws help to keep predators at bay. ~ Alice Day, All Movie Guide
