Take a blue sheet of paper as the background. Then, grab the tree branch piece and glue it across the top of the page. This will be the tree branch where our beehive hangs!

Next, grab the yellow beehive piece and glue it just below the branch.

Let’s add our first little buzzing friend! Color in the bees, then take the smiling bee cutout and glue it inside the hive entrance so it looks like it’s peeking out.

What’s a beehive without a few buzzing friends? Grab another bee cutout and attach it somewhere on the page.

Finally, let’s finish the craft by adding the last bee. Your little ones can decide where they’d like to place their bees for some creativity!
