Bzzz, bzzz, bzzz! Have you ever stopped to think about just how much bees do? There’s a reason the term “busy little bee” exists. On this National Honey Bee Day, let’s celebrate these tiny pollinators! 🐝We all know them for what they produce -- delicious, sweet honey.

But DYK honey bees are considered one of the most effective pollinators because their bodies carry more pollen, plus they visit more flowers than other pollinators? Their contribution to the biodiversity of our planet is critical to our survival. Celebrate bees by doing these fun pollinator activities with little learners! https://www.plt.org/educator-tips/pollinator-activities-preschool

Young people hold the power in their hands to make a positive impact and be a driving force for change. This International Youth Day’s theme is “Youth Empowerment for a Sustainable Future”. As educators, you can inspire learners of all ages to take action, think outside the box, and create sustainable solutions for the future of our environment. And, just think, if you can introduce one young person to a green career path…in the words of Dr. Seuss, “Oh, the places you’ll go!”
