Turn your recycled paper rolls into a cute bee mine valentine day craft. 

Valentine's Day "Bee Mine" kid craft using recycled toilet paper rolls

I love reusing toilet paper and paper towel rolls in crafts, because they are free and we always have some on hand. I’ve got everyone in the house trained to keep paper rolls for crafts. We have a storage container with our craft supplies just for paper rolls.

Supplies

  • Recycled toilet paper roll
  • Yellow paint
  • Black piper cleaner
  • Yellow, black, white, & red card stock or construction paper
  • Scissors
  • Glue 
  • Tape
  • Black marker 

Toilet paper roll "Bee Mine" Valentine's Day craft for kids

Directions

1. Paint the toilet paper roll yellow and allow to dry.

2. Cut 3 long stripes of black paper and wrap around the toilet paper roll to make stripes.

3. For the eyes cut out 2 white circles and 2 smaller black circles. Glue the white circles onto the toilet paper roll and then the black on top of the white.

4. Cut the pipe cleaner into 2 pieces about 3 inches each. Twist the pipe cleaners and tape to the inside of the toilet paper for the antennae. 

5. Cut 2 small hearts from the yellow paper and glue onto the back of the toilet paper roll to make wings.

6. Cut a small heart from the red paper. Using a black marker write “Bee Mine” on the heart and glue it to the top of one wing.

Ideas for Learning & Development

  • Colors: Review the colors used for this project: black, yellow, white, and red. 
  • Math: Count how many strips the bee has, how many eyes, and how many antennae. 
  • Shapes: The bee has heart wings and a heart with “Bee Mine”. The toilet paper roll is a cylinder. The eyes are circles. 
  • Recycling: Reuse what you already have.
