Kids and Bees Guidebook
Ideas and Inspirations for Teaching Kids About Bees
By: Sarah Red-Laird, Illustrations by: Ashley Mitchell
Second Edition Coming Soon!
The Kids and Bees Guidebooks are a guide for educators to begin, or build on, their own kid’s bee-centered lessons, programs, and events. Author Sarah Red-Laird, American Beekeeping Federation Kids and Bees Program Director, shares stories from her adventures working with kids and bees across the US and beyond. She highlights some facts about the important role youth can play in bee conservation, addresses those awkward-to-answer questions (stings, mating, the bee crisis, etc.), and gives easy steps to create your own kids program to engage our littlest potential bee advocates. Teachers and beekeepers will find an abundance of ideas and inspirations nestled in this handbook.
