Not only is it easy to make, but it’s also an excellent way to teach your kids about the importance of bees in nature. Plus, who doesn’t love a vibrant craft that brightens up your home?

Craft Supplies:

To get started, gather the following materials, most of which you probably have lying around the house:

Directions:

  • First things first – cut off a small section of your large paper plate to make the bottom of the beehive flat.
  • Discard the small sliver you just cut off.
  • Next up – grab a small piece of bubble wrap and use it to “stamp” some yellow craft paint all over the paper plate. This will give the look of “beeswax” on it.
  • Set aside to let it dry completely.
  • Now grab your printout.
  • Use markers or crayons to color in a few of the bee designs.
  • Use scissors to trim them out.
  • Add embellishments to bring them to life.
  • Next grab your black cardstock paper and cut out a door shape.
  • Finally, the last step is to glue ALL the paper elements to the paper plate piece. Start off with the door, then the bees.
  • Finally – add anything else you like for that custom look, before displaying your bubble wrap stamped beehive proudly for all to see!

Always Ensure Adult Supervision - Young children should be supervised at all times when engaging in craft activities. This is essential to keep them safe and ensure materials are used correctly. Use Age-Appropriate Supplies - Choose craft supplies that are suitable for your child’s age. Check labels for recommendations and avoid items with small parts or sharp edges for younger children. Modify as Needed - Feel free to adapt materials or steps to meet your child's abilities and safety needs. For example, substitute scissors with safety scissors if necessary. Keep an Eye on Allergies - Be mindful of potential allergens in craft materials like glue, paint, or certain fabrics. Opt for non-toxic and hypoallergenic options whenever possible. Organize and Secure Supplies - Keep all craft tools and materials organized. Store sharp objects, small parts, and potentially hazardous items out of reach when not in use. Following these guidelines will ensure that crafts remain fun, creative, and, most importantly, safe for everyone involved!
