Honey Bee Craft Worksheet: Cut and Paste Fun!

How to use this worksheet

Have your child cut out each bee part along the dotted lines, offering a steady hand if the shapes include tricky curves. Lay the pieces out and figure out together how they combine to form the honey bee's body, wings, and stripes. Glue each piece into its correct position, working from the body outward to the wings and other details. Once assembled, let your child color the finished bee with yellow and black stripes.
