Let’s have some fun drawing a robot using simple shapes! Grab your markers, pencils, or any drawing tools you have, and let’s get started!
Start by drawing a rectangle at the top of your paper. This will be the robot’s head. Draw a big letter “L” by adding a vertical line down and a horizontal line across. Then, draw an upside-down “L” to finish the rectangle.
Next, draw a big “L” shape under the head for the body. Complete the body by drawing an upside-down “L” to make a larger rectangle.
Draw two vertical lines from the bottom of the head to connect it to the body.
For the legs, draw two squares side by side. Use “L” and upside-down “L” shapes for the tops of the legs. Then, draw lines down from each square for the knees and lower legs. Connect the bottoms with a small rectangle for the feet.
Draw long rectangles on each side of the body for the shoulders. Then, add curved lines for the arms bending downwards.
Draw a circle that doesn’t connect at the bottom for each hand. Add a smaller circle inside each one.
Give your robot a face! Draw two circles for the eyes and a larger oval around them. For the mouth, draw two lines down and connect them at the bottom. Add some “robot teeth” for fun!
Draw a sideways “U” or “C” shape on top of the head for antennas. Add a zigzag line for a fun touch.
On the robot’s chest, draw a rectangle. Inside, add dashed lines for a battery indicator and different shapes like circles, squares, and triangles for buttons.
Make the arms look flexible by drawing lines across them. Add circles for the knees to give your robot more character.
Now it’s time to color your robot! Use your imagination to choose colors or follow along with the video for ideas.
Think about where your robot lives. Maybe it’s in a futuristic city or a robot world. Get creative with your background!
Great job! You’ve drawn a robot. Remember, art has no rules, so feel free to add extra details, change colors, or create a new background. Have fun and let your creativity shine!
Robot Parts Hunt: Go on a scavenger hunt around your home or classroom to find objects that match the shapes used in your robot drawing. Can you find a rectangle, a circle, or a square? Once you find them, think about how these shapes can be combined to create different parts of a robot. Share your findings with a friend or family member and discuss how everyday objects can inspire your robot designs.
Build a 3D Robot: Use building blocks, clay, or recycled materials like boxes and bottle caps to create a 3D model of your robot. Think about how the shapes you used in your drawing can be turned into real-life objects. Once your robot is built, give it a name and think about what special abilities it might have. Share your creation with the class and explain how you used different shapes to build your robot.
Robot Story Time: Imagine a day in the life of your robot. Where does it go? What does it do? Write a short story or draw a comic strip about an adventure your robot might have. Think about how the different parts of your robot help it in its journey. Share your story or comic with the class and discuss how your robot’s design helps it in its adventures.
