Activities That Make Guests Buzz

Keep guests entertained with bee-themed games and crafts. Try a scavenger hunt for hidden “pollen” treasures, or set up a crafting station where guests can decorate their own paper bees. Younger kids will love dressing up as bees and fluttering around, while older guests can enjoy bee trivia or honey-tasting stations with different varieties of honey.

Sweet Treats Fit for the Hive

No birthday party is complete without treats! A honeycomb-shaped cake with buzzing bee decorations steals the show, while cupcakes with swirled honey frosting and edible bee toppers add extra charm. Offer honey-themed snacks like cookies shaped like beehives, jars of honey drizzled on fruit platters, and “bee juice” drinks served in your whimsical paper cups.
