Lesson Title:

"The Busy Bee Who Shared God's Love"

We can spread kindness and joy just like a busy bee shares pollen!

"The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, and kindness." — Galatians 5:22 (Toddler-friendly paraphrase)


Main Point to Repeat with Kids:

"I can share God’s love!"


Story: "Benny the Busy Bee" (Toddler Version)

Benny the Bee was always buzzing around the garden.  He loved visiting beautiful flowers and collecting sweet nectar.

But one day, Benny noticed something. Some flowers looked sad and droopy. They needed pollen! But the other bees were too busy thinking about themselves to share.

Benny remembered what his Queen Bee taught him: "Sharing helps everyone!"

So Benny flew from flower to flower, sharing pollen and making them bright and happy again! 

As he worked, Benny sang, "God’s love is sweet to share!"

Soon, the whole garden bloomed with color, and all the bees saw how sharing kindness made everything better!

Just like Benny, we can share God’s love by being kind, joyful, and helpful!

Buzzing through flowers, up and around.

Share the love just like. bumble bee.
