Tips for art-mazing success
- Collage arts require the use of scissors, so TAKE EXTRA CARE while handling them, or seek the supervision of an adult.
- Make two to three more flowers so you’ll have a garden for your bee.
- You can tape your bee and flower to a pencil or a stick so you’ll have DIY puppets to play with!
- Make sure that there’s something underneath the paper when you scribble so you won’t accidentally draw on your kitchen table or drawing table.
