The lesson encourages creativity by allowing children to decorate their huts and imagine who might live there, fostering both artistic skills and imaginative thinking.
  1. What shape did we draw first to make the roof of the hut?
  2. What do we need to add so people can go in and out of the hut?

How to Draw a Hut

Hi there, little artist! Today, we’re going to learn how to draw a cozy little hut. It’s going to be so much fun, and you’ll get to use your imagination to make it special. Let’s get started!

Step 1: Draw the Roof

First, let’s draw the roof of the hut. Imagine a big triangle sitting on top of a rectangle. Use your pencil to draw a triangle shape. This will be the roof that keeps the rain out!

Step 2: Draw the Walls

Now, let’s draw the walls. Under the triangle, draw a big rectangle. This is where the people live inside the hut. Make sure it’s nice and straight!

Step 3: Add a Door

Every hut needs a door so people can go in and out. Draw a small rectangle in the middle of the big rectangle. This is the door. You can even add a little circle for the doorknob!

Step 4: Draw Windows

Let’s add some windows so we can see outside. Draw a square on each side of the door. Now you have windows to let the sunshine in!

Step 5: Decorate Your Hut

Now comes the fun part! You can decorate your hut any way you like. Maybe add some flowers around it or draw a chimney on the roof. Use your crayons to color it in and make it look beautiful!

Extra Fun: Imagine Your Hut

Close your eyes and imagine who might live in your hut. Is it a family of bears or maybe some friendly elves? Draw them next to your hut and give them big smiles!

Great job! You’ve just drawn a wonderful hut. Remember, you can always add more details and make it your own special place. Keep practicing and have fun drawing!

  • What do you think makes a hut a cozy place to live in? Can you think of any special things you would add to your hut to make it feel like home?
  • Have you ever seen a real hut or a small house? What did it look like, and how was it similar or different from the one you drew?
  • If you could invite any animal or character to live in your hut, who would it be and why? What kind of adventures would you have together?
  1. Build a Mini Hut: Gather some simple materials like popsicle sticks, glue, and paper. Work together to build a small model of a hut. Use the popsicle sticks to create the walls and roof, and paper for the door and windows. This activity helps you understand the structure of a hut and how each part fits together, just like in your drawing!

  2. Nature Walk Observation: Take a walk outside and look for different types of houses or huts in your neighborhood. Notice the shapes you see, like triangles for roofs or rectangles for walls. Can you find any houses with interesting decorations? Talk about what makes each house special and how it is similar or different from the hut you drew.

  3. Story Time Imagination: Imagine a story about who lives in your hut. Share your story with a friend or family member. What do the characters do in their hut? How do they use the door and windows? This activity encourages you to think creatively about the purpose of each part of the hut and how it fits into a story.
