You will need:
- Yoghurt pot or similar
- Yellow and black paper (or felt)
- Glue
- Yellow funky foam
- Wiggle eyes
- Pipecleaners
- Scissors
- Tape
- String
Instructions:
- Draw around the pot onto funky foam and cut this shape out to make the face of the bee.
- Cut strips of yellow and black paper out, gluing these around the pot to make the stripes.
- Carefully poke a hole in each side of the pot for the wings and one in the top to hang.
- Loop a pipecleaner and insert the ends into the hole in the pot. Tape the ends down on the inside to secure.
- Thread some string through the top hole in the pot and tape down.
- Glue two wiggle eyes onto the funky foam face.
- Glue around the edge of the funky foam face and press onto the end of the pot.
- Your bee is now ready to hang! Use different sizes of pots to make a whole bee family!
- As an extra idea why not make them using red and black felt to make ladybirds?
