Bee Craft for Preschool
I love preschool toilet paper roll crafts! They’re fun, frugal crafts that kids can play with when they’re done.
What You’ll Need
Tissue Paper Roll | Colorful Craft Paper | Paper Glue | Pencils
Scissors | Ruler | Black Marker Pen | Goggle Eyes
What You’ll Do
Step 1:
Cut out a yellow craft paper according to the height and circumference of your tissue paper roll. Then draw 2-3 centimeters wide stripes on it using a black marker pen.
Your preschoolers can practice their scissor skills if you have them cut out paper stripes instead of drawing them on. Click here to download the template.
Step 2:
Fill in the stripes using paint or the black marker. Keep the 2-3 centimeter gap in between the stripes.
Step 3:
Wrap the yellow paper around the tissue paper roll and glue it there.
Step 4:Cut out the wings for the bee using the template.
Step 5:
Glue the wings on the back of the bee.
Step 6:
Now finish it off by gluing the antennas on the top part of the bee and the googly eyes as well.
