Respectful treatment of living creatures, an insight into the complexity of the living world and the understanding that everyone, including children, can make their own contribution to preserving an environment worth living in without much effort are learning objectives that cannot be overestimated. If honeybees didn't exist, they would have to be invented for exciting learning and education about responsibility and sustainability. The book "Beekeeping with Children and School Groups" is a wonderful guide and helper for experienced beekeepers who can and want to offer children much more than just letting them watch Honey Extractors.
