Drawing a Mama Bird and Baby Bird: A Fun Activity

Let’s have some fun drawing a mama bird and her baby bird in a nest! Get your crayons ready, and let’s start creating a lovely picture together.

Step 1: Drawing the Nest

First, use a brown crayon to draw the nest. Make a big “U” shape for the bottom of the nest. Then, draw a line across the top to make it look like a half-circle. Color the nest brown and add some spiky lines to make it look like real sticks.

Step 2: Drawing the Baby Bird

Now, let’s draw the baby bird! Pick a color you like. You can use green or pink. Draw a small upside-down “U” shape for the baby bird. Remember, it’s a baby, so keep it small!

Step 3: Drawing the Mama Bird

Time to draw the mama bird! Use a blue crayon or any color you like. Draw a taller shape starting from the top of the baby bird. Make sure the baby bird is in front of the mama bird.

Step 4: Adding Beaks

Use an orange crayon to draw the beaks. Make a “V” shape above the baby bird’s head. Then, add an upside-down triangle on top of the “V” and color it in. Do the same for the mama bird’s beak, but make it a bit bigger.

Step 5: Coloring the Birds

Now, color the baby bird with the color you chose, like green or pink. Color the mama bird with blue or your favorite color. Be careful around the beaks so you don’t smudge them.

Step 6: Adding Eyes

Use a black crayon to draw eyes on both the baby and mama bird. You can add cute eyelashes to the mama bird if you want. You can also trace around the whole drawing with black to make it stand out.

Step 7: Final Touches

Add anything else you like to your picture! You can draw hearts, a tree, or a sunny sky to make it even more beautiful.

Conclusion

Great job! You’ve drawn a lovely mama bird and her baby bird. This is a wonderful way to show your creativity. We hope you had fun, and we can’t wait to see your amazing artwork!

  • What colors did you choose for your mama bird and baby bird, and why did you pick those colors? Do they remind you of any real birds you’ve seen before?
  • Imagine if you were a baby bird in a nest. What kind of things would you see and hear around you? How would it feel to be in a nest high up in a tree?
  • Have you ever seen a real bird’s nest? What did it look like, and where did you find it? How do you think birds build their nests?
  1. Bird Watching Adventure: Go outside with a grown-up and try to spot real birds. Look for birds in trees, on the ground, or flying in the sky. Can you see a mama bird with her baby? What colors are they? Try to draw what you see when you get back home. This will help you notice different bird shapes and colors in real life!

  2. Create a Bird Story: Use your drawing of the mama bird and baby bird to make up a story. What do you think they are doing in the nest? Are they looking for food, or maybe learning to fly? Share your story with a friend or family member. This activity helps you use your imagination and think about what birds do in their natural habitat.

  3. Bird Nest Building: Collect small twigs, leaves, and grass from your backyard or a park with an adult. Try to build a small nest just like the one you drew. How do you think birds make their nests strong enough to hold their babies? This hands-on activity will help you understand how birds use natural materials to create their homes.
