Let’s Draw a Cute Frog Together!

Today, we’re going to have a fun time drawing a cute frog! All you need are some crayons and a piece of paper. Are you ready? Let’s start our drawing adventure!

What You Need

  • Green crayon
  • Black crayon
  • Red crayon
  • Paper

Step 1: Draw the Frog’s Body

Take your green crayon and draw a big circle in the middle of your paper. This circle will be the frog’s body.

Step 2: Add the Eyes

Now, grab your black crayon and draw two smaller circles on top of the big green circle. These are the frog’s eyes. Color them in to make them stand out!

Step 3: Draw the Mouth

Let’s make our frog smile! Draw a big, happy curve under the eyes for the mouth.

Step 4: Create the Eyelids

Use the green crayon again to draw an upside-down “U” shape over each eye. These are the eyelids.

Step 5: Add the Tongue

Frogs have long tongues! Use your red crayon to draw a big “U” shape under the mouth. This is the frog’s tongue.

Step 6: Color the Frog

Now, color in the frog’s body with your green crayon. Take your time and make it look nice and green!

Step 7: Draw the Toes

Frogs have toes! Draw three little bumps on each foot for the toes. These are the frog’s fingers and toes.

Step 8: Draw the Arms

Draw the frog’s arms coming out from the body. Add three wiggly fingers to each hand to make them look fun!

Step 9: Create a Lily Pad

Frogs love lily pads! Draw an oval shape on one side of the paper. This is where your frog can sit and relax.

Step 10: Add Flies

Frogs like to eat flies! Use your black crayon to draw some flies around your frog. Start with a circle for the body and add wings.

Step 11: Draw Water

Let’s add some water under the lily pad. Draw a line on each side of the pad and color the space below to make it look like water.
