About the event

Get to know the world of bees. Learn the life cycle of a bee, the different types of bees within a hive, and the jobs they do. After reading Are you a Bee? by Judy Allen and Tudor Humphries, we will dance like bees and search the flowers in the park gardens for bees and other insects.

Children must be registered and accompanied by an adult. Storytime for Tots is a monthly series, and includes a story followed by nature exploration and a craft or activity.
