Now I know a collection, I thought it'd be really really fun to have like, well a goofy kind of balloon, a silly one, a fun one. So, we're going to make a little buzzy bee. This is a three twenty-one bee body, which I've blown up and I've tied the two ends together of a two-sixty two. Now, all I need to do is find the center, of the circle. Gently twist the center and in affect make like a figure of eight, shape. Now I'm going to take the little bee body, pinch the face and twist one, two, three. Now I'm going to take the wings and just slot them, slot them through. Straighten the wings up and give them a little shake, just a little bit on both sides, and draw a face on it. Big eyes, the pupils and on the other side make the little eyebrow, if you would like. Eyebrows and the same with that one. Of course it's a jolly happy little bee, so we're going to make him have a happy little smiley face. The markings on important on the bees. Now down the back of our bee, we're going to just draw little rectangles, like this. If you want, you could just mark the rectangle out, for the child and let him or her fill it in. It doesn't have to be perfect. There's one. And these will go right down the bee's back. This gives a very authentic looking bee. And one final one. Here he goes. I think he's off to find our balloon flower.
