B Is for Bee Craft
Have you heard the buzz? This week’s animal letter craft is coming your way and it’s really quite bee-u-tiful! Our B Is for Bee craft is colorful and fun, so let’s get started!
Here’s What You’ll Need
- 2 sheets of printer paper
- Card stock (we used blue, black, white, and yellow)
- B Is for Bee Craft templates
- 2 “googly” eyes
- Glue stick
- Pencil
- Scissors
Instructions for Assembling Your Letter B Craft
- Print the B Is for Bee Craft templates.
- Cut out the templates and trace the letter B, bee wings, antennas, and stripes onto card stock.
- Cut out the letter B and bee pieces.
- Glue the letter B and the bee pieces onto a full sheet of card stock (we used blue, but you can use any color you like) to form a buzzing bee.
- Affix 2 googly eyes to the top of the “B” just beneath the antennas.
Learning with Your Letter B Craft
As you and your child assemble your B Is for Bee Craft, practice saying /b/–/b/–bee together. You can find more tips for working on pre-reading skills with your preschooler in this handy download.
