The Buzz

Projects= Mom's homework!




Each student in Kaylee's class had to pick a state and dress up to represent that state with a posterboard of information on the front and back. With the choice of Utah as her state, Kaylee wanted to dress like a bee and unfortunately bee costumes only come in toddler sizes. After a trip to the craft store we decided to sew yellow felt in stripes across a black shirt. We wanted to do wings but it was difficult with the posterboards she had to wear. We transformed an old headband into some attennae by recovering it with black and white ribbon on top with some yellow ric rac for interest and lined with it yellow felt on the inside. Two pipe cleaners with some fuzzies attached to the end became her attennae. We used the same ribbon to hang the posterboard and to decorate we turned little golden glitter bugs into bees. We enjoyed creating together.




The Buzzing Kaylee-bee!
