## Caption

Italian teacher Catrina Percontino, who owns Per Tutti — Italian for “For Everyone” — has embedded spiders into each child’s container of macaroni, or farfalle, to teach them “ragni,” the Italian word for them. Today’s parent-and-me style lesson also introduces the children, aged 1 to 3, to “il gatto nero” — the black cat — in honor of Halloween.

Italian American heritage month is celebrated during October by Italians across Long Island. For some parents of Italian descent, it’s never too young to start to expose their children to the Italian culture and language.
