Tonight was Science and Technology night at Montgomery Elementary School in Atlanta. I was asked to be the beekeeper and talk about the bees. Somehow I managed to get away without a photo of my display - I took a blue nuc box, frames of wax in process and completely drawn, honey to taste, lip balm, beeswax, candles, children's books about bees and a slide show loop about inspecting a bee hive that I put together for
the short course this Saturday.
I did get some cute pictures of the kids who tried on my grandson's bee veil - they thought it was just the bees knees to get to try it on (and one mother). Actually several of the parents wanted to try on the veil and asked great questions. The kids mostly wanted to taste the honey!
I had a great time. Enjoy the adorable kid pictures below.
How fun Linda!
ReplyDeleteLove this! Sounds like you had a wonderful time. What a bunch of adorable budding beekeepers.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a really fun session. When I went to a primary school to do sessions I was told I couldn't give them honey. Stupid fear of liability I guess. I would have loved to take 5 or 6 difference flavoured honeys for them to try and compare.
