Have you ever thought about how amazing bees are? In this fun activity, you get to help a bee on its journey to collect nectar from flowers and make honey in the honeycomb. Let’s learn how you can do this!
Your mission is to guide the bee to the flowers so it can collect nectar. Then, you will help the bee fly to the honeycomb to turn the nectar into honey. To do this, you’ll use special commands called “get nectar” and “make honey.”
Each flower has a different amount of nectar. You can tell how much nectar is in a red flower by looking at the small number in the corner. Make sure to collect all the nectar from each flower before moving on to the next one.
Once the bee has collected the nectar, it will fly to the honeycomb. Each honeycomb can hold a certain amount of honey, just like the flowers have nectar. The honeycomb’s capacity is also shown by a number. Make sure to produce as much honey as the honeycomb can hold!
If you collect all the nectar and fill the honeycomb with honey, you’ll move on to the next level. If not, you can try the puzzle again. It’s a great way to practice problem-solving and have fun at the same time!
As you help the bee, you’re also learning how to think like a programmer. Programming is all about giving clear instructions to solve problems. So, take your time, explore, and enjoy the experience of being a little programmer!
Flower Hunt: Go on a nature walk with an adult and look for different types of flowers. Count how many different kinds you can find and observe if there are any bees collecting nectar. Draw a picture of your favorite flower and imagine how much nectar it might have. Share your drawing with your class and explain why you think bees might like that flower.
Bee Dance Game: Bees communicate with each other through a special dance to show where flowers are located. Create a simple dance with your friends or family to show the direction to a pretend flower in your home or classroom. Use your body to show “turn left,” “turn right,” “go forward,” or “go backward.” See if your friends can follow your dance to find the flower!
Honeycomb Building: Use building blocks or craft materials to create your own honeycomb. Think about how each cell can hold a certain amount of honey. Try to fill your honeycomb with pretend honey using small objects like beads or buttons. Count how many pieces of “honey” each cell can hold and compare with your classmates to see who has the biggest honeycomb!

Aren’t bees fascinating? In this next set of puzzles, your goal is to help the bee reach the flowers, collect nectar from them, and then fly over to the honeycomb to produce honey. You’ll need to use the “get nectar” and “make honey” blocks for this exercise.
Each flower contains a different amount of nectar: 1, 2, 3, or more. The amount of nectar in the red flowers is indicated by a small number in the corner, so make sure to collect all the nectar from the flower before moving on.
Additionally, each honeycomb has a limited capacity for honey: 1, 2, 3, or more. Be sure to produce as much honey as the honeycomb can hold. If you successfully collect all the nectar and produce all the honey, you’ll advance to the next level. Otherwise, you’ll need to try the puzzle again.
Take some time to explore and enjoy the experience of being a programmer!
