Little Bees, from educational publisher Wayland, are informative picture books designed to encourage young children to explore and question the world around them.

Sharing the title with your preschoolers is likely to lead both to lively discussion and inspiration for activities – for example, you could have a lot of fun discovering just what can be achieved in a minute; making your own sun dials; or creating artwork based around different clock faces.
