Bees for kids

Here is a lovely short poem for children. Short is good as it is easy to remember and it teaches children where bees get honey from and also makes them think: what is the sweet thing that children want to eat? Maybe after you learn the poem you could try some yummy honey on bread.

Busy bee, busy bee, where are you going?
Down where the flowers are budding and growing,
There I shall find something hidden and sweet
That all the children are wanting to eat.

Make a bee from circle and oval shapes.



Little bees on summer days
Flap their wings
and buzz away.

Can you hear the bees?

Listen! O, listen!

Here come the hum the golden bees

Underneath full blossomed trees,

At once with glowing fruit and flowers crowned.
