Bees: The Journey Home | Calm Bedtime Science for Kids & Adults
from The Bedtime Scientist: Calm Science for Sleepy Kids · host Josh Fleishman
A bee flies close. Most people tense up. Even grown-ups.But what if you knew what it was actually doing?Tonight, we follow a bee smaller than your fingertip, covered in soft fuzzy hairs, almost always on her way somewhere.Inside the hive, bees build perfect hexagons and use a “waggle dance” to tell each other, in complete darkness, exactly where the flowers are.By the end, a bee flying near you won’t feel dangerous.Just busy. Just trying to get home.Like you, tonight.Books, bundles, and downloadable episodes at bedtimescientist.com
