How to Draw a Bowling Ball and Bowling Pin

Let’s have some fun drawing a bowling ball and a bowling pin! Get your pencil, marker, and paper ready, and let’s start creating something awesome!

Step 1: Drawing the Bowling Ball

Create the Circle: First, draw a big circle on the right side of your paper. This will be our bowling ball. If you want to make it perfect, you can adjust it until you’re happy with the shape.

Step 2: Drawing the Bowling Pin

Draw the Vertical Line: Now, let’s draw the bowling pin. Start by making a straight line from the top of your paper downwards. This line will be the middle of the pin.

Add Horizontal Lines: At the bottom of the vertical line, draw two short lines going sideways. These will be the base of the pin.

Create the Upside-Down U: At the top of the vertical line, draw an upside-down U shape. This will be the top of the pin.

Outline the Sides: From the ends of the U shape, draw curved lines down to meet the horizontal lines at the bottom. Now your pin has its shape!

Step 3: Outlining with Marker

Trace the Bowling Ball: Use a marker to go over the circle you drew for the bowling ball. Make sure to trace all the way around.

Add Finger Holes: Draw three small ovals on the bowling ball. These are the finger holes. Place them diagonally for a cool look.

Outline the Bowling Pin: Trace the pin with your marker. Add two stripes around the neck of the pin for extra detail.

Step 4: Adding a Funny Face

Draw Eyes: Let’s make our bowling ball funny! Draw two big circles for eyes and add smaller circles inside for sparkle.

Create a Mouth: Draw a mouth to show how your bowling ball feels. Is it happy, surprised, or silly?

Bowling Pin Face: For the pin, draw eyes that are closed and a mouth that looks like it’s shouting. It’s ready for action!

Step 5: Coloring Your Drawing

Now it’s time to color your drawing! Use markers or colored pencils to make your bowling ball and pin colorful and fun. You can choose any colors you like—be creative!

Conclusion

Great job! You’ve drawn a bowling ball and a bowling pin with funny faces. Remember, your art is special and can be as unique as you want it to be. You can even add a background or other fun details. Keep drawing and have fun!

  • What do you think makes drawing fun and exciting? Can you think of other objects or animals you would like to draw with funny faces?

  • When you add colors to your drawings, how do you decide which colors to use? Do you have favorite colors that you like to use in your art?
  1. Explore Shapes Around You: Take a walk around your home or classroom and look for objects that have the same shapes as a bowling ball and pin. Can you find a circle like the bowling ball or a tall shape like the pin? Draw these objects in your notebook and label them. Discuss with a friend or family member how these shapes are similar to the ones you drew.

  2. Create a Bowling Game: Use empty plastic bottles as bowling pins and a soft ball as the bowling ball. Set up the pins in a triangle shape and take turns rolling the ball to knock them down. Count how many pins you knock down each time. This activity helps you understand the shape and function of a bowling pin and ball in a real game.

  3. Design Your Own Bowling Ball and Pin: Imagine you are creating a new design for a bowling ball and pin. What colors and patterns would you use? Draw your designs on paper and share them with your classmates. Explain why you chose those colors and patterns. This activity encourages creativity and helps you think about how art can be both fun and functional.
