Drawing is super fun, especially when we draw animals from nature. Today, we are going to draw a cute arctic fox. We will start with the letter “F.” Are you ready? Let’s grab our crayons and paper!
Before we start, make sure you have these things:
1. Draw a Straight Line: Use your blue crayon to draw a line going down in the middle of your paper. This is the first part of the letter “F.”
2. Add the Top Line: Draw a line across the top of the first line. Make it a little wide to give your fox a big head.
3. Make the Middle Line: Draw another line from the middle of the first line. This finishes the letter “F.”
1. Draw the Body: From the bottom of the first line, draw a line down to make the fox’s body.
2. Connect the Body and Head: Draw a curved line to join the body with the head.
3. Add the Legs: Draw slanted lines for the front legs and add two U-shapes for the paws.
4. Finish the Feet: Draw another set of legs and paws on the other side so your fox looks like it’s sitting.
5. Detail the Paws: Draw little lines on each paw to show the toes.
1. Draw the Ears: Make big, pointy ears by drawing curves going up from the head.
2. Sketch the Tail: Draw a big, fluffy tail that looks like a “C.” Add a zigzag at the end for texture.
1. Draw the Nose: Use your black crayon to draw a “U” shape for the nose and color it in.
2. Create the Mouth: Draw a curved line from the nose to make the mouth.
3. Add the Eyes: Draw two big circles for the eyes and smaller circles inside for highlights. Color the big circles, leaving the small ones white.
4. Finish the Face: Draw a curved line over each eye to make your fox look playful.
1. Color the Ears and Cheeks: Use your pink crayon to color inside the ears and add rosy cheeks.
2. Add Snowflakes: Use your blue crayon to draw snowflakes around your fox. Make a snowflake by drawing a plus sign and then an “X” on top. Do this all around your fox.
Yay! You did it! You drew a cute arctic fox. Remember, “F” is for fox, and now you have a lovely picture of this animal in the snow. Enjoy your drawing, and feel free to add your own special touches. Happy drawing!
Take a walk outside or visit a local park. Look for animals and try to identify their habitats. Discuss with your child how different animals, like the arctic fox, have unique homes and environments. Encourage them to draw another animal they see and create a simple habitat for it on paper using crayons.
Go on a shape and letter hunt around your home or classroom. Look for objects that resemble the letter “F” or other shapes used in the drawing of the arctic fox, like circles for eyes or U-shapes for paws. Encourage your child to draw these objects and label them with the corresponding letter or shape.
Ask your child to imagine a day in the life of their arctic fox. What adventures might it have in the snowy landscape? Encourage them to tell you a story or draw a series of pictures showing their fox’s adventures. This will help them think creatively and understand more about the animal’s environment and behavior.
