The Honey Bee Dance: Six Children's Lessons And Activity Pages (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780788015922)

Julia Bland's children's messages are popular with pastors, Sunday school teachers, and parents all across the country. That's because children love them and learn from the stories, drawings, and activity pages. Her work has been translated into Spanish and used by churches in Mexico and South America.

The six lessons in this booklet, all based on Ephesians 4:32--5:2a, provide a perfect series for Vacation Bible School, a retreat, or a summer series for children. Using the busy, productive life of a honey bee as a metaphor for the life of a Christian, Bland offers these charming lessons:
Bee Kind
Bee Tenderhearted
Bee Forgiving
Bee Forgiven
Bee Like Jesus
The Honey Bee Dance

This series of stories written by Julia Bland will catch the interest and imagination of children of all ages through the creative use of the honey bee. The children will enjoy, as I did, getting to know many facts about the honey bee as well as participating in the many art and instructional activities provided.

Julia Bland's stories are wonderful... I don't see why anybody wouldn't want to use them.
