🐝 Beekeeping in Schools

A 3D schoolyard hive-visit simulation showing how age group, protective gear and hive activity change the safe observation distance for young beekeepers.

Education & Learning Tools3DModerate60 FPS

A schoolyard hive-visit model where age group, protective gear and hive activity together set the safe distance a class keeps from a working beehive.

🔬 What It Demonstrates

Younger children, unprotected observers and a more agitated colony all widen the required safety margin, while veils, suits and calmer hives let a class stand closer for hands-on learning.

🎮 How to Use

Pick an age group, toggle protective gear, and drag the hive-activity and class-size sliders. Watch the amber safety ring, the sting-risk reading and the class formation respond live.

💡 Did You Know?

Many school beekeeping clubs start every age group with a sealed glass observation hive — no suit needed — before any student ever stands near an open colony.

⚙ Under the hood

A 3D schoolyard scene showing a class visiting a real beehive, where age group, protective gear (veils/suits) and hive activity level combine to set the required safe observation distance, visualized as a colour-coded ring around the hive with live bee swarm and sting-risk feedback.
