Idea:
For a fun art project, I gave my students an outline of a bee body printed on
yellow construction paper. They had to cut out the body and then draw a face on
their bee. I then gave them some strips of black paper that they tore into small
pieces to make stripes. They also used the strips of paper to make antennae.
After the glue was dry we used the extra film from the laminating machine and
let the children trace their hands and cut out to make "wings". The kids really
enjoyed doing this activity and it's a great way to utilize that extra film that
is always coming out from the laminator!

Here is a cute idea to make a beehive. We had lots of fun making up the "beehive
pokey" and dancing around with these!
Cut white construction paper into a beehive shape.
Paint bubble wrap using a piece of sponge (Yellow paint)
Press bubble wrap onto white construction paper.
Add thumb print bees or bee stickers for a nice added touch.
Add a large craft stick to the back of the art work, and now you have a "bee
hive puppet"!

Idea:
I cut out a beehive from yellow construction paper and then I have the children
put their index finger, or any finger, in an ink pad and stamp all over the
beehive. Then they take a marker to make the wings and eyes. I actually made it
when I was a preschooler and the kids seem to like it.

Honeycomb Hive
Need: Honeycomb cereal, bee stamp, or black and yellow construction paper
Directions: Honeycomb cereal makes a great hive. Glue a grouping of the cereal
pieces next to each other on a sheet of paper. Add the active bees by stamping
them around the hive with an ink stamp shaped like a bee or create bees with
tiny scraps of black and yellow paper glued together.

Idea:
Here is an easy idea for bumble bees using two craft stems (formerly known as
pipe cleaners), a bit of yellow tissue paper and a pencil. Holding one end of
the stems at one end of the pencil, twist the entire stems around and around the
pencil. When done, squeeze the stems together like a spring and remove from
pencil. This is the bee's body. Squeeze a small rectangle of yellow tissue
between the sections of the body near the "head" end. These are the wings.
Easy, cute and just the right size!

Idea:
I die rice with yellow food coloring. I cut out large ovals out of black
posterboard or construction paper (posterboard holds the rice better) I cut a
smaller circle out of the black paper. I cut wings out of vellum (white see
through paper) or wax paper. I let the kids glue the yellow rice in stripes on
the the oval shape which is the bees body. They glue the head on (the circle)
and then add wiggle eyes, white pipe cleaners and black pom-poms for the
antennas....add the wings and t has to be the the cutest bee I have yet see
created!

Give the kids a piece of paper and have them paint a tree with brown
paint and a paintbrush. When they're done with their tree, give them a
shallow container of yellow paint and have them dip their fingertips
into the paint. Then they can make bee prints onto and around the tree
with their fingertips. Looks really neat when they're finished.

Paper bag bees: For children three years old. All you need are
paper lunch bags, yellow and black paint, newspaper to stuff them, yellow
construction paper for wings and string to hang them. Let the children paint the
bags yellow and black. The next day they can stuff them and add the wings. You
can hang them from the ceiling.
