Making Beeswax Candles

The 3rd/4th graders made beeswax candles today. We have studied about bees over the past month in our book, the Little House in the Big Woods (3rd) and in learning about insects in Science (3rd and 4th). I had tried to see if we could visit a bee farm, since that was unsuccessful, we did this instead. Many tried the "honey comb" and discovered its unique taste. Enjoy! But please place metal or glass under the candle before burning!! :)

The finished product!!
