Today I am going to show you how to make a bee. The reason I chose this was because I’m from Highland, so I thought this would be a good way to represent my school! Even if you are not a Highland Hornet, this could still be a fun summer craft! Have fun! 1
Paint a toilet paper roll yellow.

Cut black construction paper into three strips.
3
Glue the strips on the toilet paper roll.

Then, take a piece of yellow construction paper and cut out a circle.

Then glue it on top to make a head. Draw a cute face!
6
Cut blue construction paper to make wings.

Then take black pipe cleaner and make them into antennas to decorate.

For older kids, add some cute ribbon for even more decoration. We made this into a bee wind sock with some black and white ribbon.
Or use what you have around the house. Tissue paper is a great alternative.
