Birthday Invitation: Fun Bees

For this invitation you will need very few materials. Thick white cardboard, two shades of yellow paint, bubble wrap, a brush and a black felt-tip pen.

Spread the bubble wrap with yellow paint of a lighter tone and attach it to white cardboard. It will leave honeycomb marks that need to be allowed to dry before moving on to the next step.

After the honeycombs have dried, we smear our finger with yellow paint of a darker shade and leave prints that will later become bees.

After the paint has dried, paint the bees stripes, antennae and eyes. And then we write the name of the guest, the place and time of the event! The children's invitation is ready!
