Grace the Bee woke up wiggly today.
Her wings fluttered faster than usual, and she felt like buzzing all around the hive. Christmas was so close, and there was excitement everywhere!
Grace knew exactly what to do.
“If my body feels busy,” she said, “I should turn it into fun!”
So, Grace created a game she could play anywhere — inside the hive or out in the garden.
Grace’s Christmas Thought
