Into the Hive: Learning About Freedom and Juneteenth

In honor of Juneteenth, Bright Bees Kids is celebrating the power of freedom, resilience, and storytelling through our Young Authors Writing Contest. Students in grades K–8 are invited to write about a person they admire who demonstrates pride, courage, love, kindness, or perseverance in their everyday life. Using grade-level vocabulary words, young writers will have the opportunity to share meaningful stories while strengthening their reading and writing skills.

Winners from our Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced divisions will receive a limited-edition Bright Bees Kids Young Author T-Shirt and a $10 Chick-fil-A gift card. Contest entries will be accepted through July 31, with winners announced on August 1. We can’t wait to celebrate the voices, creativity, and imagination of the next generation of storytellers.
