Did you know the first bees would have been flying around in the Cretaceous just as ‘Iggy’, our Iguanodon, was snacking on leaves from tall trees? At the Sedgwick Museum, we have two 20million year old honey bees trapped in amber. Found on Yarmouth beach in 1891.
Amy Smith studies bees Plant Sciences in Cambridge. In this activity, Amy shows us how to make a bee-autiful fluffy bumblebee. You will need some card and wool.
To make your fluffy bumblebee, you will need:
- A small ball of wool
- Cardboard
