How to teach children to draw stick figures? What is the basic knowledge of stick figure?

Children like animals. They like listening to their parents tell stories about the animal kingdom. I especially like watching cartoons. Mickey mouse and Donald duck, black cat sheriff and other charming images, so children also like to draw animal stick figures best. So how can parents meet their children's requirements and guide them to draw good animal stick figures?

To teach children to learn to draw animals, we must first guide them to observe animals correctly. When parents take their children to the zoo to play, they will find that some animals have oval bodies; Elephants have the longest noses among animals. A stinging nose is the sharpest; Hippos have the largest mouth; Giraffes have the longest neck; A rabbit has the shortest tail, and so on. While guiding children to observe, we should also tell them more about animal knowledge and living habits to help them find out the rules.

To draw a good animal stick figure, we should start with the most basic ellipse. Because children are familiar with ellipses, it is easy to draw them. On the basis of instructing children to draw an ellipse, we add lines on the top, bottom, left and right sides or inside or outside of the ellipse from shallow to deep, and some animals with different shapes will come alive.

If a child draws an ellipse with a short tail at one end, a living tadpole will appear in front of him.

Draw a goldfish, first draw an oval fish body, then draw a round fish eye, draw an arc fish mouth between the eyes, and finally draw a wavy fish tail. Drawing a frog is the same as drawing a goldfish. Draw an oval frog body first, then draw two round eyes, then draw four curved legs on both sides of the body and draw some patterns on the body.

Some animals' bodies are not oval, but their lying posture is oval. Such as kittens, lambs, cows, foxes, etc.

If you draw standing animals such as Malaysia, old cow, lamb and rooster, you can guide children to summarize them in other geometric shapes. Draw a cow with a rectangular body and an inverted trapezoid head, and then add ears, eyes, mouth, horns, tail and legs at appropriate positions. The cock's body is an oblique triangle. Just add its mouth, eyes, comb, legs, claws and tail to the proper position of the oblique triangle.

To draw animals, children should be taught to draw some static, simple and familiar animals. After practicing for a while, teach children to draw some dynamic animals.
