Another great evening helping the Squirrels in Tickhill gain a few badges!

The kids were fab. Asking lots of interesting questions but also getting stuck in! I hope they all enjoyed my bee chat and the fun activities!

Big shout out to Rose who again smashed it as my super helper!!

The story board has started. We knew it wouldn’t take long before I did another. 😬

The first of 3 books aimed at 7-10 year olds. Still following the world of bees but specifically a honey bee who is searching for her mum!

Whatever you do….Don’t. call. her. bumble!!

Coming soon!

Absolutely LOVED! Going down to Rainbows today to help them gain their Bee Rescuer badge!!

It’s the first time I’ve done something like this but I think they all enjoyed it and hearing many facts about the bees!!

We helped make bee pontoons for bees to safely land and hydrate, we coloured in plant pots to be filled with wildflower seeds and made signs to help the bees too !!

I had an amazing assistant Rose who got stuck in and helped as well!

Thank you Rainbows for taking part and helping the bees!!
