Welcome to Busy Bee Academy, where team leaders Buzz and Honey are here to help new recruits be the best they can BEE! We’ll connect our hive minds to find the best ways to take care of ourselves and our community. Using music and audience participation, we’ll explore eating smart, staying active, and managing emotions. A healthy hive also helps us BEE kind by celebrating differences and making friends. If we work together, the whole group can thrive!
