3. Glue the smaller yellow circle onto the black-striped yellow circle, making sure the finger holes are at the bottom of the large circle. Then glue your white wings on the sides of your bee body.

4. Glue your googly eyes onto your face and use your pink marker to draw a smile. Lastly, fold your string in half to make a V and glue it onto the back of your bee head for antennae. You might want to add a piece of tape to help secure the antennae in place until your glue dries.

Aren’t they adorable? And guess what? I’m sharing how to make these cute ladybugs over at Artsy Momma this weekend.

Making them both together makes a great book extension activity for Ladybug Girl and Bumblebee Boy by David Soman and Jacky Davis.
