Egg Carton Bee
With spring here, this is a great activity for kids to do, with little parental help. They can use the same technique for making other insects, if they don't like bees.
Materials:
egg carton cups
black and yellow paint
2 or more googly eyes
red construction paper
scissors
glue
Instructions:
Cut off one egg holder from its carton and paint it yellow.
Next, use the black paint to make stripes and a face for the bee. Also, use the white pipe cleaner to create wings for the bee. You can use the black pipe cleaner to make a stinger for the back.
Use glue to attach each piece to the egg carton you painted, and your bee is finished!
