Bee Good

Last week's starter class included making these pipe cleaner bees. I had to pick up the pipe cleaners in America, because they are too expensive here. So I guess they are imported bees, and you know the havoc they can wreck on the sensitive ecology. I just wasn't thinking. Although, most of the ones created here were of the inferior type. Let's face it, 4 year olds dexterity isn't the best. Most of the kids needed some help. But there were several kids who wouldn't even try. I worked with the kids who tried and needed the least amount of help first. But eventually there were a dozen little kids flitting around the room, stinging each other and me with their mutant bees. It was terribly cute.
