In fact, kids might be able to draw cartoon farm animals easier than adults because they will not be so hard on themselves.

Instructions

  1. How to Draw a Cow

    • 1

      Draw two big ovals for the body and head. The second oval for the head should be smaller.

    • 2

      Draw two smaller ovals on the head to create the snout and an ear.

    • 3

      Draw two small bumps on the top of the head so that it looks like a cow head. Draw two circles for the nostrils in the oval for the snout. Draw two circles on the head for the eyes. Draw two horns and make the ears look more like a curved triangle than a circle.

    • 4

      Draw over the body so that the top curves inward for the dip in the cow's back. Draw four ovals getting bigger at the bottom coming off of the body for the legs. Draw a curved line about a third of the way up from the bottom of each leg for the hooves.

    • 5

      Draw a small curved line with a curved triangle at the back of the body for the tail. Draw half of an oval underneath the body with several tiny ovals for the udder. Fill in two smaller circles in the eyes for the pupils. Add any details you like and then color it.

    How to Draw a Pig

    • 6

      Draw a big circle, and then draw a tiny oval in the left side of the circle for the snout.

    • 7

      Draw two small circles above the oval for the eyes. Make one of them smaller to create the illusion of distance.

    • 8

      Draw two curved squiggles on top for the ears. Make two rectangles at the bottom for the feet. Make two more tiny rectangles almost behind them for the other feet. Draw two half circles on the bottom of each foot.

    • 9

      Draw two tiny ovals inside the snout for the nostrils.

    • 10

      Draw a curve underneath the snout for a smile. Then draw a squiggle at the back of the body for the corkscrew tail. Color your creation.

Tips & Warnings

  • You can draw a chicken, sheep, or turkey by using the beginning outlines of the pig and filling it in with the appropriate details.

  • Draw a horse by using every detail of the cow except the udder, tail and head. Fill it in with the appropriate details.
