Three Bees Crawling Over Dripping Honeycomb
Coloring guide
A big honeycomb made of large, open hexagon cells fills this page, with honey dripping off the bottom edge. Three smiling cartoon bees are climbing and crawling over it: one at the top left, one resting on the right, and one hovering near the lower left. Each has big round eyes, curly antennae, a striped body and veined wings. Three honey drops fall beneath the comb, and in the bottom corners a flower with rounded petals and some leafy grass sits on each side. The wide hexagons are easy for little hands, while the stripes give older kids something to work on. Golden yellow and orange would suit the comb and drips, and soft blue on the wings makes them pop. Free to print for a calm afternoon or a spring nature lesson. More like this: explore the Bee, Puppies and Cats coloring page collections.
