Title: Visiting the 1st Graders again!
Post by: DonMcJr on May 21, 2014, 12:18:09 am
They wanted us back this year after doing a Bee talk last year and this year we had 90 very smart 1st Graders and I had a Blast!

Here's a few pics and the one 1st grade class had to sing us a song before we left! So cool!

Trying on the Bee Suit is always a hit and I believe this was the young lad that asked me after it was on, " Does this make me look fat? " lol!

Showing them the Observation hive and bees emerging...

That's great Don! In law enforcement career I have always said that making a good impression upon the youth is the way to go. One of those little rascals just may be the adult some day to support something to preserve or protect bees in the future.
