Welcome to How to Draw for Kids
I am an artist with many years of experience. Over these years I learned to draw, created drawings and paintings, and gained practical knowledge in the visual arts.
This site was created so I could share what I’ve learned with those who have recently decided to begin their path as an artist.
This site is called How to Draw for Kids for a reason, because it was created specifically for children, their parents, and art teachers who are looking for the simplest and most reliable ways to teach children art.
My goal has always been to make drawing more accessible to children and to give parents and art teachers simple tools they can rely on while teaching. The site was created to help anyone guide a child through the basics of art, even without prior experience.
Why Howtodrawforkids.com?
I create my drawing lessons while keeping several important points in mind:
- All lessons have a small number of steps.
- Each step includes a detailed and clear explanation.
- All drawings are built using very simple lines and basic geometric shapes.
- New lines in each step are highlighted in red so beginners can easily see what has been added.
- The structure of every lesson stays simple from the first step to the last, so students don’t run into difficulties.
In addition to the tutorial, many lessons include extra materials that help students better understand how to draw a particular object.
I often add a shortened version of the tutorial, a coloring page, a tracing worksheet, and a grid worksheet. These materials work equally well for at-home practice, school art classes, or after-school activities.
You can print any lesson or worksheet, use them for home practice, or hand out printed copies to your students if you teach art. These printables make it easy for students to draw the object they need without difficulty.
All guides on this site are completely child-friendly, safe, and created specifically with young learners in mind.
Beyond the structure of each lesson, I also focus on what skills a child develops while practicing.
Learn How to Draw Correctly
Each step-by-step art lesson is created not only to teach a child how to sketch a specific object but also to build an additional useful skill.
For example, in the cube lesson, a child practices drawing straight lines, and in the person lesson, the young artist learns how to build the basic proportions of a face.
I am also working on video art guides that will complement the text versions and make the learning process even clearer.
Wide Range of Drawing Tutorials
On the pages of How to Draw for Kids, you will find simple art instructions on almost any topic, including animals and characters from comics, cartoons, and games.
Each guide is designed so that a child can easily understand the steps and repeat them without difficulty, and parents or art teachers can easily assist and support the child as they learn.
The site itself is built with this purpose in mind, providing clear materials that help adults teach drawing and organize lessons for kids at home or in the classroom.
It matters to me that kids and young artists learn to sketch from an early age and gain a solid understanding of basic art skills.
It is equally important that every child, regardless of circumstances, has the opportunity to learn. For this reason, all step-by-step guides and additional materials (video lessons and PDF files) are completely free on my website.
