Materials

  • Paper cup
  • Colored cardstock or construction paper
  • Scissors
  • Glue
  • Glue dots optional
  • Bee Template

Instructions

  • Download the bee template, print and cut out the pieces you need.
  • Start by gluing the eyes in the middle of the head.
  • Next, glue the antennae to the top and back of the bee's head.
  • Attach the stripes along the bottom part of the paper cup body and glue them in place.
  • Glue the head to the top of the paper cup.
  • Finish up by taking the bee's wings and fold about 1/2'' of the paper from the pointed side to the back of the wing. Use double sided tape ( the easiest and fastest way to glue it in place) or glue on the section that you folded down and glue it in place along one side of the bee's body. Repeat for the other side.
