Hey there friends,
I stumbled upon the cutest craft idea for kids, and I just had to share it with all of you! It’s a free printable template for a bumble bee craft that is perfect for preschoolers and toddlers.
What You’ll Need
To get started, you’ll need to print out the free template. You can find it at Simple Mom Project. Then, gather the following materials:
- Construction paper in black and yellow
- Scissors
- Glue stick
- Black marker
Instructions
Once you have all your supplies, it’s time to get crafting! Here’s how to make the bumble bee:
- Cut out the bee wings from the yellow construction paper.
- Glue the wings onto the bottom of the bee body. The body should be the black construction paper.
- Use the black marker to draw stripes on the bee’s body.
- Cut out two small circles from the yellow construction paper. These will be the bee’s eyes.
- Draw pupils onto the bee’s eyes with the black marker.
- Glue the eyes onto the bee’s body.
- Finally, cut out two thin strips of black construction paper for the bee’s antennae. Glue them onto the top of the bee’s body.
Make It Your Own
Of course, you don’t have to stick exactly to these instructions. You can get creative with your bumble bee craft! For example, you could use different colors or decorate the bee’s wings with glitter.
This bumble bee craft is not only fun and cute, but it’s a great way to incorporate learning into your crafting time. You can teach your little ones about the importance of bees in our ecosystem and how they help pollinate plants.
