When I think of May holidays I think of Mother’s Day. However, there are a bunch of special days celebrated in May. Among other things May is Flower Month, National Barbeque Month, National Duckling Month (celebrated by the color yellow), National Hamburger Month, National Salad Month, and National Backyard Games Week.

What do these things have in common? I think of picnics and bees. During our May 19th drop-in crafts program from 10:30am-11:15am we will be making a yellow flower mask with a bee…or you could make a flower and grass crown with bees. If bees are not your thing, you can make these crafts with butterflies instead.

Also, check out our Plants and Seeds booklist & our books on insects.
