\r\n\r\nBut this snack isn\u2019t just about the alphabet. In addition to practicing the letter B while you create your bumblebee, you can work on counting, too!<\/p>\r\n\r\n

We had a cute helper for our bumblebee snack, and I think he would agree that it was a buzzing success!<\/p>\r\n\r\n![\"Ingredients](\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/B-Is-for-Bee-1-600x400-1.jpg\")
