What can you do to help bees in the environment? You could make a bee hotel (or Bee and Bee!).

Or follow these instructions below to make a deluxe bee hotel. You’ll probably need the help of a handy adult for this ambitious project!

Where would you position your bee hotel? Which plants would be needed by the hotel? What else would be required for these busy visitors?
Or you could create a bumblebee garden. Visit the Bumblebee Conservation Trust for loads of great ideas.

Can you get the whole family out for a cycle ride or run around the park during your exercise time? How many bees can you spot?
Have fun with your learning! Hope to see you soon.
