Preschoolers Learn About Bees



Since it's the bees that bring us the honey for Rosh Hashana, our four-year-old class, the Blue Room, has been studying bees.

  1. This bee-class looks fantastic. I am homeschool my kids and I must say that nothing is better when parents can also find preschooler activities for their kids. Personally I use kidsfront.com for the teaching ideas. Please have a look here http://www.kidsfront.com/english/synonyms_1.html.
