EnglishWhat Kinds of Drawing Tutorials Are on How to Draw for Kids?
Updated
How to Draw for Kids organizes its drawing lessons by subject category, so you can go straight to the kind of picture you want to make. The site lists categories including animals, cartoons, anime, holidays, food, movies, games, comics, fantasy, toys, cars, landscapes, still lifes, buildings, people, clothes, vehicles, electronics, and a miscellaneous group. Each tutorial is built from a small number of steps, and every step comes with a clear, detailed explanation. The site is written for children, parents, and teachers, and the lessons are also pitched at beginners.
How the tutorials are structured
The site's author, Aram Chomoyan, describes his approach directly: lessons have a small number of steps, each step is explained clearly and in detail, and drawings are built up gradually. In practice, that means you pick a subject, follow the numbered steps in order, and add one part of the drawing at a time rather than trying to sketch the whole thing at once.
This structure suits two audiences:
- Kids drawing on their own — short step counts keep a lesson finishable in one sitting.
- Parents and teachers — the step-by-step format is easy to demonstrate or hand out as a guided activity.
Finding a tutorial by theme
There are three ways to locate a lesson, according to the site:
- Search bar — use it if you already know what you want to draw.
- Category browsing — pick a subject area such as animals, cartoons, or buildings and browse within it.
- Scroll the homepage — the latest guides, printables, and resources appear as you move down the page.
| If you want to draw… | Start with the category |
|---|---|
| A pet, wild animal, or bird | Animals |
| A character from a show or film | Cartoons, Anime, or Movies |
| Something for a holiday | Holidays (e.g., Halloween) |
| Food, toys, or vehicles | Food, Toys, or Cars/Vehicles |
| A scene or a room | Landscapes, Buildings, or Still Lifes |
| A person or clothing | People or Clothes |
Holiday tutorials in practice
Halloween is the clearest example of how a theme is bundled on the site. The Halloween section collects coloring pages, tracing worksheets, and step-by-step lessons for drawing a pumpkin, ghost, witch, bat, witch hat, haunted house, zombie, vampire, mummy, and Halloween cat. If you are preparing a classroom activity or a rainy-afternoon project, this grouping lets you choose a subject by difficulty and theme without searching one lesson at a time.
Beyond step-by-step lessons
The site also offers coloring pages, printable worksheets, and articles for beginner artists, plus drawing ideas lists (for example, headwear and space drawing ideas) and a perspective lesson. These are useful when you want practice material rather than a single finished drawing, or when you want to understand a technique behind the tutorials.
One caveat: the site does not state pricing or login requirements in the material available here, so check the individual tutorial or printable page before assuming a resource is free to download.
