Use it for a lesson on bees

Bees can have a slightly bad reputation because they sting (which hurts!). But the honey bees of the world pick up the pollen of flowers and spread it. Which allow plants, including many crops, to reproduce, which in turn gives us food! Work in this bee craft into your bee lesson.
