Draw the beak of the penguin by making a large seed shape. Draw the point of the beak so that it points to the right and the rounded part of the seed is in the center of the penguin's head.

Make wings on the penguin by drawing two elongated "C" shapes on either side of the penguins body. Draw a square with rounded corners at the neck of the penguin. Make the top of the square so that it is in the center of the beak and the bottom of the square so it touches the top of the inner circle on the body.

Draw two eyes and eyebrows on the face. Draw hair feathers on the top of the head. Make two narrow lines down the center of each foot. Make a smile line in the center of the beak and a small dot on top of the beak.

Trace the lines on the penguin with a permanent pen. Erase the lines that you do not want to keep. Color the penguin in with markers, pencils or pens, or leave it black and white.
