Summer is a great time to learn about bees. Honey bees are a critical link in U.S. agricultural production. Pollination by managed honey bee colonies adds at least $15 billion to the value of U.S. agriculture annually through increased yields and superior-quality harvests. But managed honey bees have come under serious pressures from many different stresses, which has resulted in beekeepers losing many colonies.
Students can learn more about bees and agriculture from the United States Department of Agriculture.

This award-winning game delights children as they try to carefully remove leaves without dislodging the sleeping bees. The player with the fewest bees in his/her tray at the end of the game wins! Bee careful! If you pull out the wrong leaf or if your hand starts to shake, bees come tumbling out of the tree onto your flower tray. Each player must turn the oak tree so that the hole faces their flower pot at the beginning of their turn. Teaches hand-and-eye coordination, strategic thinking, dexterity, taking turns and cause-and-effect! Perfect for 2-4 players ages 3 and up.
Contents: 1 honey pot, 1 old oak tree, 1 flower tray base, 32 leaves, 30 little honey bees, game rules.
