How to Draw a Fall Tree: A Fun Guide

Drawing is a super fun way to show your creativity, especially when you draw something from nature like a fall tree. In this guide, we will learn how to draw a tree with colorful leaves and maybe even some cute animals. So, grab your crayons and paper, and let’s start drawing!

What You Need

  • Crayons (yellow, brown, orange, red)
  • Paper

Step 1: Draw the Tree Trunk

Let’s start by drawing the tree trunk with your brown crayon:

  1. Draw a long line going down. This is the side of the trunk.
  2. At the bottom, draw a short line across to make the bottom of the trunk.
  3. Make the lines darker so the trunk stands out.

Step 2: Add the Roots

Now, let’s give the tree some roots:

  1. At the bottom of the trunk, draw small pointy shapes that go out and then curve back in.
  2. Add a few more pointy shapes on each side to make it look natural.

Step 3: Create the Branches

Time to add branches to your tree:

  1. Draw a branch coming out from the trunk. It can be wiggly or straight.
  2. Add more branches going in different directions. Make some thick and some thin.
  3. Feel free to add lots of branches!

Step 4: Draw the Leaves

Now, let’s make the tree colorful with leaves:

  1. Use your orange crayon to draw small circles or spots on the branches for orange leaves.
  2. Switch to yellow and add more spots for yellow leaves.
  3. Finally, use the red crayon to add red leaves. Your tree will look bright and beautiful!

Step 5: Add Details

Let’s make your tree come alive with some details:

  1. Draw a small oval on the trunk. This could be a squirrel’s home!
  2. You can also draw a bird sitting on a branch. Draw its head, tail, and legs.

Step 6: Final Touches

Look at your drawing and see if you want to add anything else. Maybe more trees, some people, or even acorns on the ground.

Conclusion

Great job! You’ve drawn a wonderful fall tree. Remember, the best part of drawing is having fun and being creative. Your tree is special because you made it. Enjoy your artwork and keep drawing!

  • What colors do you see in the trees around your home during the fall, and how do they make you feel? Can you think of other things in nature that change colors like the leaves?
  • Have you ever seen animals like squirrels or birds in trees? What do you think they do in the trees, and why do you think trees are important for them?
  • If you could add anything to your drawing of a fall tree, what would it be and why? Maybe a swing, a treehouse, or a special animal friend?
  1. Leaf Collection and Observation: Go outside and collect different types of leaves. Look at their shapes, colors, and sizes. Can you find leaves that are yellow, brown, orange, or red like the ones you used in your drawing? Try to match the leaves you find with the colors you used for your tree. Discuss with a friend or family member why leaves change color in the fall.

  2. Create a Nature Collage: Use the leaves you collected to create a nature collage. Arrange them on a piece of paper to form your own unique tree or landscape. Use glue to stick the leaves onto the paper. You can also add other natural materials like twigs or small stones. Share your collage with the class and explain how it represents a fall scene.

  3. Story Time with Your Tree: Imagine a story about the tree you drew. Who lives in the tree? What adventures do they have? Write a short story or draw a comic strip about the animals and people around your tree. Share your story with your classmates and see what stories they have come up with about their trees.
