Yay! Our first curation report from me and the Busy Bees tribe! I am so excited to see what stories you all have after the festive period and have a glimpse into what you are planning for 2026.
I am glad I have created a good flow of doing this report every two weeks instead of every week. It's a lot of work, but thoroughly enjoyable and aim to make it completely authentic and feature the stories that really resonate with me.
Thank you for all your hard work last year and letting us into your diverse worlds. It's been an eye opening experience!
Here's to 2026!
Before we continue, I'd just like to remind you who we have to thank for all the behind the scenes work and what this curation post is all about!
As always and going forward, every week I will be picking 10 of my favourite Busy Bees posts, from actively buzzing bees and showcasing them here!
**Please post regular & quality content if you want to be showcased in this post. The newer the post, the more time you will have to earn rewards on it and interact with readers!

Here are this week top 10 (well, my personal favorites anyway!) Manually Curated Busy Bees Posts, as curated by me, myself and I, 
⭐🐝💛
** I PLACE POST AS I GO AND THEY'RE IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER. Each post is very special and due to the very wide range of topics, media and individual flair, I have decided not to make this a post about rank or turn it into a competition.
I will now also be flagging "newbees" to our community so they can feel loved and supported! Look out for this tag: 🐝🐝🐝NEWBEE!🐝🐝🐝:** and give them a warm welcome to the [Busy Bees](/created/hive-184600 community.
Without further ado, here are the curated posts! I hope you enjoy them as much as I did!
