Discover the world of hive-less bees! Learn why bee hotels matter, then create and decorate your own using recycled cans, twigs, paper, and twine.

Explore the hidden world of hive-less bees and learn why these important pollinators rely on bee hotels for safe nesting spaces. In this engaging, kid-friendly lesson, we'll uncover how bee hotels support a healthy environment and help local bee populations thrive.

After the lesson, participants can craft and decorate their own bee hotels using recycled cans, twigs, construction paper, and twine. This hands-on eco-activity is a fun way for kids to learn, create, and make a positive impact on nature.

Registration is required. Recommended for ages 6-11. Families registering multiple children should register each participant separately.

If you have questions, please contact the La Plata Branch at 301-934-9001 or email laplataref@ccplonline.org.
