When spring arrives, nature graces us with a parade of blossoming flowers and buzzing bees. The sight of these hardworking pollinators darting from flower to flower is indeed endearing. Today, we’ll capture this seasonal vivacity in a delightful ‘pom-pom bee’ craft, perfect for both children and adults.
Materials:
To begin our spring craft project, gather the following supplies:

Creating Pom Pom Bees:
Begin by wrapping your pom-pom maker with black and yellow yarn, following the natural pattern of the bee’s stripes. Once you’ve achieved a firm, round pom-pom, carefully clip it from the pom-pom maker using scissors.
Attach the googly eyes at the front of your bee using a small drop of glue. Similarly, cut wing shapes from the white felt or cardstock and attach them at the back.
Voila! Your buzzing pom-pom bee is ready for spring!
