Mother’s Day is coming, and a great way to celebrate is by drawing a mother and baby fox! This is a fun and creative activity for everyone. Let’s gather our drawing supplies, like paper and something to draw with, and get started!
Nose: Start by drawing a small U-shape near the top center of your paper. This is the mother fox’s nose. Add a curve on top of the U and color it in.
Mouth: Draw a small U that goes from the bottom of the nose, curving to the left and right to make the mouth.
Eyes: Make the eyes by drawing U-shapes on both sides of the nose. You can add eyelashes for extra detail.
Head Shape: Draw an upside-down U over the top of the head and back down on the other side.
Cheeks: Add curves on each side for the fur on her cheeks, then draw zigzag lines for the fluffy fur.
Chin: Connect the lines with a curve to form the chin, making the fox look cute and fluffy.
Forehead Pattern: Draw an upside-down U shape starting from the nose and connecting to the sides of the head. Do this on both sides.
Ears: Draw curves going outwards for the ears, then add zigzag lines at the top for fur detail.
Inside of Ears: Create the inner ear shape with a curve that doesn’t connect to the head, followed by a zigzag line like the letter M.
Positioning: Draw the baby fox’s face right under the mother’s chin to show them cuddling.
Nose: Draw a smaller U-shape for the baby’s nose, a little to the side, and add a curve on top.
Mouth: Make a tiny curved W shape for the mouth.
Eyes: Draw the baby’s eyes, maybe with a happy look, and add eyelashes if you like.
Head Shape: Draw the top of the baby fox’s head, overlapping a bit behind the mother’s chin.
Cheeks and Chin: Add the cheek fur with zigzags and connect the cheeks with a curve for the chin.
Ears: Draw the ears, with one ear a bit hidden behind the mother’s chin and the other sticking out.
Baby Body: Start with a simple line going down from the baby’s chin.
Mother’s Tail: For the mother fox, draw a curvy tail wrapping around the baby. Start from the body, curve up, then back down to make an S shape. Add zigzag details at the end for fur.
Finishing the Bodies: Complete the mother’s body with a simple line connecting from the ear down to the tail. Draw a small line for the baby’s body under the chin.
Now that you’ve finished drawing, it’s time to bring your foxes to life with color! Use your favorite colors and add any extra details, like hearts or a background with more baby foxes.
Great job on your mother and baby fox drawing! We hope you enjoyed this creative activity and had fun showing your artistic side. Remember, the most important part is to have fun and practice your drawing skills. Happy Mother’s Day!
Fox Observation Walk: Take a walk in a nearby park or garden with your family. Look for animals or pictures of animals that have similar features to the fox, like pointy ears or bushy tails. Can you spot any? Draw a picture of what you see and compare it to your fox drawing. How are they similar or different?
Create a Fox Story: Using your drawing of the mother and baby fox, create a short story about their day. What adventures do they go on? Do they meet any other animals? Share your story with your family or friends and ask them what they think might happen next in your story.
Color Mixing Experiment: Gather some paints or colored pencils and try mixing colors to find the perfect shades for your foxes. What happens when you mix red and yellow? Can you create a new color for the fox’s fur? Experiment with different combinations and see what unique colors you can make for your drawing.
