Drawing a blow-up swimming pool is a super fun activity, especially when it’s sunny outside! Let’s learn how to create a colorful pool scene. Grab your crayons or markers, and let’s get started!
First, let’s draw the top of the swimming pool. Make a gentle curve that looks like a smile near the bottom of your paper. This will be the top edge of the pool.
Now, add more layers to your pool by drawing another curve below the first one. Leave a little space between them. Do this again to add a second layer. These layers make the pool look puffy and fun!
Let’s put a beach ball in the pool! Draw a part of a circle peeking out from the pool’s edge. Add a smaller circle inside for a shiny spot, and draw some curved lines to make it look round and bouncy.
Now, finish the pool by drawing the back side. Curve around the beach ball and connect it to the middle line. Do the same on the other side. This makes it look like the pool is wrapping around the ball.
Add a little bump on each side for the pool’s layers, then connect these to the bottom line.
Let’s make the water look splashy! Draw little wavy lines coming from the beach ball and touching the pool’s edge. Add more wavy lines on the other side for extra splashiness.
Every blow-up pool needs a valve! Draw a small circle with an oval inside it. This is where the air goes in. Add some grass on both sides of the pool to make it look like it’s in a backyard.
Time for some fun! Draw a kid jumping into the pool. Start with a circle for the head and add a big open mouth to show excitement. Draw closed eyes using sideways V shapes and add some hair.
For the body, draw a U shape for the torso, and use curved lines for the arms and legs. Don’t forget the feet, toes, and fingers!
To show the kid is jumping, add some motion lines around their head and body. This makes it look like they’re really moving!
Now, it’s time to add color! Use your favorite colors to fill in the pool, beach ball, and the kid. You can also draw a sunny sky or more kids playing for extra fun.
Great job! You’ve drawn a blow-up swimming pool scene. You can add more fun things like toys, umbrellas, or even a diving board. Enjoy your drawing and have a splashy time with your summer-themed art!
Pool Observation Walk: Take a walk around your neighborhood or visit a local park to find a real blow-up swimming pool. Observe the pool’s shape, colors, and how it looks when filled with water. Can you spot any beach balls or other toys inside? Draw what you see and compare it to your drawing from the lesson. How are they similar or different?
Design Your Dream Pool: Using paper and crayons, design your own dream blow-up swimming pool. Think about what fun shapes and colors you would like. Would you add any special features like slides or sprinklers? Share your design with a friend or family member and explain why you chose those features.
Water Splash Experiment: Fill a small container with water and gently drop a small ball into it. Watch how the water splashes and creates waves. Try dropping the ball from different heights and notice how the splash changes. Draw the splash patterns you see and compare them to the wavy lines you drew in your pool scene.
