Let’s Draw a Birthday Present: A Fun Art Activity
Today, we’re going to have a lot of fun drawing a birthday present! This is a great way to use your imagination and creativity. Are you ready? Let’s begin!
A Special Hello
Before we start, let’s say a big hello to our friend, Brooklyn! Hi, Brooklyn! We think you’re an awesome artist. Now, let’s make something special together!
What You Need
To draw your birthday present, you’ll need:
- A marker
- Paper
- Something to color with (like crayons, colored pencils, or markers)
Getting the Paper Ready
We’re going to make a surprise drawing, so let’s get our paper ready:
- Fold the Paper: Take the top of your paper and fold it down to meet the bottom. This makes a line in the middle.
- Make a Guideline: Fold the top back up to the middle. If you need more time, that’s okay!
- Flip and Fold Again: Turn the paper over and fold the bottom up to the top. Now you have three lines: top, middle, and bottom.
Drawing the Present
Now, let’s draw our birthday present!
- Draw the Box: Use your marker to draw a square or box. The top should be above the fold, and the bottom should be below it. Leave room for a bow on top.
- Outline the Box: Draw lines down the sides of the box and connect them at the bottom.
- Add the Lid: Draw a line across the fold for the lid of the box.
- Draw the Ribbon: Add two lines close together for the ribbon. Then, draw a curved line on top for the bow.
- Detail the Bow: Connect the bow to the box with lines and add little lines for the bow’s wrinkles.
Unfolding the Surprise
Now, open up your paper to see the inside of the present. You can draw anything you like here, such as:
- Your favorite toy
- The words “Happy Birthday” or “Surprise”
- A cute teddy bear or any fun item
Use your imagination to make it special!
Coloring Your Creation
It’s time to add color to your drawing! Pick your favorite colors and make your birthday present look amazing. Take your time and enjoy coloring.
The Final Touches
After coloring, show off what you’ve drawn inside the present. You can add some confetti around your drawing to make it look like a real birthday surprise!
