Footprint Bumblebee or Paper Shapes Bumblebee Craft

Materials you will need for the footprint bee are waxed paper, glue, scissors, something to colour with and a piece of paper (I prefer construction paper).

You can use the templates I've provided or let the children do it on their own like my daughter did for hers,

  • Print out the template of choice (or make it yourself... we didn't use the template for the bee in the photo.  Tasha loves drawing BIG lips and eyelashes).   You can substitute a tracing of your child's footprint for the oval in the template.
     
  • Colour the pieces as appropriate and cut them out.
     
  • Assemble your bee (you'll need to trim the stripes after glueing them on).
     
  • Trace the child's feet on a piece of waxed paper and use these as the wings.
     
  • ALTERNATIVE IDEA:  Trace one foot on yellow construction paper and use this as the body.  Trace both hands (fingers closed) on wax paper and use these as the wings.
