What to expect
Set in calm and cozy Honeybee Meadow, Slow Down, Busy Bee is a series of six, interconnected short stories thoughtfully designed to introduce the concepts of mindfulness and mental wellness to kids, families, and classrooms. Engaging, accessible, and fun, Slow Down, Busy Bee’s simple and impactful lessons and tools are weaved into stories with lush imagery, sound, and caring characters—like Busy Bee (an inquisitive and always-buzzing young bee), Mr. A (a wise old bee and Busy Bee’s mindfulness mentor), and Mrs. Kittle (the meadow’s soothing human caretaker). So take a relaxed breath in … and out … smell the wildflowers, hear the songbirds singing, and get ready to immerse yourself in the idyllic, mindful world of Slow Down, Busy Bee.
