    Letter B for Bee Craft

    This time we're focusing on the letter B, and what better way to learn about it than with our buzzing friends, the bees? Bees play a crucial role in our ecosystem! While the kids may run away from them screaming, they should also know that we need them!

    They pollinate all the flowers and plants. That means bees make stuff grow! This craft is a great way to discuss the importance of bees in a fun and engaging way.

    Honey bees are not just super useful though. They also provide a wonderful theme for a craft! I don’t know any little kids who don’t love buzzing around like a bee when asked to! So, we'll be using yellow construction paper and a few black stripes to transform the letter B into a cute bee’s body and make it into cute paper crafts. This is sure to get our young learners engaged and excited!

    How To Make B Is For Bee Craft

    Here are the step-by-step instructions for the B letter of the alphabet craft!

    cut out b from template

    Start by downloading, printing, and cutting out the free letter B worksheets at the bottom of the post.

    trace b onto yellow paper

    Trace the B template onto the yellow colored paper.

    yellow b for bee craft

    Cut out the B letter.

    Grab black piece of paper

    Next, grab your piece of black paper.

    cut black paper in thin strips

    Cut out at least 8 thin strips from the black paper.

    grab your b and black strips

    Grab your B shape and 7 of the strips of paper

    glue black strips to B

    Starting in the middle of the B, glue the strips of paper across the letter and then glue the remainder out from there up and down the B. Cut off the excess of the black strip of paper making sure the B is seen.

    cut one strip in half and then cut out two black circles

    Cut two small circles out of the remaining black paper. Then cut the last strip of paper in half. Using your pencil, curl one side of each of the two strips around your pencil turning them into bee antennas.

    add white small circles out to eye

    Next, using a hole punch, punch out two small circles from the leftover white paper from the B template. You can also cut small circles too. Also if you have googly eyes glue those on, or even a dot of white paint will work too. We glued the two small hole punch pieces to the inside of the eyes.

    Lastly, glue the eyes to the top of the B. Then glue the antennas to the back of the top of the B. Viola, you have super cute buzzy bees and one of the most simple bee craft around!
