Drawing Fun: Create Your Own Gumdrops

Art is always more enjoyable when shared with friends! In this article, we’ll guide you through a fun drawing activity where you can create your own colorful gumdrops. Grab your drawing supplies, and let’s get started!

What You’ll Need

Before we dive into the drawing, make sure you have the following supplies ready:

  • A marker (or any drawing tool you prefer)
  • Paper
  • Coloring materials (crayons, markers, or colored pencils)

Step-by-Step Guide to Drawing Gumdrops

Drawing the First Gumdrop

  1. Start with the Shape: Begin by drawing an upside-down “U” shape in the center of your paper. This will form the top of your gumdrop.
  2. Create the Bottom: Instead of a straight line, draw a curved line that goes down and then back up to give your gumdrop a 3D appearance.

Adding More Gumdrops

  1. Draw Overlapping Gumdrops: Next, draw another gumdrop next to the first one, but this time, only draw part of it to show that it’s behind the first gumdrop. Start with another upside-down “U” and follow the same curving technique for the bottom.
  2. Repeat for Additional Gumdrops: Draw a third gumdrop on the left side, ensuring it’s a bit shorter than the others for variety.

Adding Personality with Faces

  1. Draw Funny Faces: Now it’s time to give your gumdrops some character! Start by adding eyes and a mouth to each gumdrop. You can make them as silly or funny as you like.
  2. Customize Each Face: Feel free to create different expressions for each gumdrop. This is where your creativity can shine!

Coloring Your Gumdrops

  1. Coloring Time: Once you’re satisfied with the faces, it’s time to add color! You can choose any colors you like—there are no rules here. Consider using bright colors like red, yellow, and blue for a vibrant look.
  2. Add Extra Details: If you want to take your drawing to the next level, think about adding textures or details like sugar sprinkles on top of your gumdrops.

Final Touches

  1. Fill the Page: If you have extra space, consider adding more gumdrops or other fun elements to your drawing. You could even create a whole gumdrop landscape!
  2. Show Off Your Artwork: Once you’ve finished coloring and adding details, take a moment to admire your work. Each gumdrop will have its own unique personality!

Conclusion

We hope you had a blast creating your funny gumdrops! Remember, the most important part of drawing is to have fun and express yourself. Don’t hesitate to experiment with colors and shapes. Happy drawing, and see you next time!

  • What colors did you choose for your gumdrops, and why did you pick those colors? Do they remind you of anything special?
  • How did you decide what kind of faces to draw on your gumdrops? Can you think of a time when you made a funny face or saw someone else make one?
  • If you could make your gumdrops come to life, what adventures would they go on? What would they say or do?
  1. Gumdrop Observation Walk: Take a walk around your home or garden and look for objects that have similar shapes to gumdrops. Can you find any upside-down “U” shapes or curved lines? Draw or describe what you find and share it with your friends or family.
  2. Create a Gumdrop Story: Use your gumdrop drawings to create a short story. What adventures do your gumdrops go on? Do they have names or special powers? Write a few sentences or tell your story to a friend or family member. You can even act it out with your drawings!
  3. Color Mixing Experiment: Try mixing different colors to see what new colors you can create for your gumdrops. Use crayons, markers, or colored pencils to blend colors together. What happens when you mix red and blue? Or yellow and green? Use your new colors to add even more personality to your gumdrops.
