FIRST IT WAS THE LORD OF THE FLIES AND NOW THE SWARM OF THE BEES–AS THE POTUS BHO IN THE WHITE HOUSE DURING EASTER SUNDAY GETS SWARMED WITH BEES WHILST STORY TELLING A PHOTO OP EPISODE TO VISITING CHILDREN READY TO DO THE ANNUAL EGG HUNT

A group of unwelcome bees disrupted US President Barack Obama's storytelling session for children at the launch of the White House Easter egg roll on Monday.

As the president was reading from 'Where the Wild Things Are', bees began buzzing around the children seated on the South Lawn.

Mr Obama told the panicked children, "Bees are good. They won't land on you. They won't sting you. They'll be OK."

The US president used this year's Easter egg roll event to support first lady Michelle Obama's 'Let's Move!' initiative to encourage children to exercise and eat healthily.

The theme of this year's egg roll was 'Gimme Five', with participants encouraged to identify five ways they plan to be more active and live healthier lives.

The Easter egg roll draws tens of thousands of people to the White House South Lawn each year.
