In the UK there is a TV programme for very young children called Peppa Pig. One episode is about spiders and reassures viewers that spiders are very small and can't hurt you.

When the series was exported to Australia, that episode was banned.

Ref: Peppa Pig 'spiders can't hurt you' episode pulled off air in Australia – again
