SUMMARY: On today's Mom to Mom, we're making a bee bath for your garden—a fun and educational activity for kids. Bees, common this time of year, need water and can drown if it's too deep. To create a bee bath, you'll need terracotta pots, saucers, paint (like puff or acrylic), Thompson Water Seal to waterproof the pots, glue (like Gorilla Glue), and marbles. Decorate the pots, glue saucers on top, fill with marbles, and seal with Modge Podge. This project teaches kids about bees and provides a useful garden feature. Share ideas with us, and see you next time!
