Easy way to draw a frog

The plot of the fairy tale about the frog princess tells the story of an enchanted girl, Vasilisa the Wise. Koschei was offended by her and bewitched her, so the princess was in the form of a frog until night, and then shed her skin and became a girl.

Vasilisa's fiancé, Ivan Tsarevich, decided to burn the frog's skin so that Vasilisa would remain a beauty forever, but then Koschei's magic worked and the prince had to get his bride out of captivity.

Princess Frog pencil drawing for children step by step — To draw, a child will need an album, pencils, and an eraser.

Draw the Frog Princess using the following steps:

The sheet is placed vertically. In its upper part, the frog's eyes are drawn in the form of 2 elongated ovals. In the corner of each oval, a circle is drawn and inside it, another circle. The larger circle is painted over to create a pupil with a glare. Both pupils should be the same, so that the eyes look in the same direction.
Using schematic movements, draw the shape of the frog's head. If you can't draw it straight, first make a horizontal oval and form the frog's muzzle from it. Make protrusions on the side of the cheeks and chin, draw semicircles above the eyes, and narrow the muzzle at the temples. Erase unnecessary lines.
A downward curved arc is used to draw a smile from one cheek to the other. The arc is finished with semicircles, showing the cheeks.
Draw the frog's body with 2 vertical lines down from the head. Indicate the legs.
From the center of the body, draw the hind legs folded in a squat on both sides. Draw rounded triangles looking in different directions. Draw a line in the center to show that the legs are folded.

On the front paws, 3 fingers are drawn. Between the little ones, there is a rounded distance, as with membranes.

Finish drawing the lower part of the body and the hind legs, which are shaped like flippers.
They add details to the image of the frog princess - a crown on her head, Ivan Tsarevich's arrow in her mouth. They draw spots in circles of different sizes all over her body.

The frog is visible in half a turn, so the cheek and smile are not drawn on the right, the eye is also not fully visible - it is hidden by the nose.

A pointed crown is drawn along the marked lines. A pattern is marked inside it with triangles and horizontal lines.

Draw paws on the sides of the body. The right paw ends in spread fingers, the left one is bent into a fist, an arrow will be drawn in it.

Useful tips and recommendations

This:

They think through the composition of the drawing in advance - the number of characters in the drawing, how they interact, the details of their appearance and the background.
Imagine the hero of the drawing relative to the location of the sheet. Otherwise, in the process, the outline may go beyond the paper.
They start with an image of the frog itself, then add details of its appearance and outfit.
It is easier to draw a frog with ovals and circles. The finished sketch is narrowed and sharpened in the necessary places. The excess is erased with an eraser.
Preschool children are given medium-soft or hard pencils so that the lines are not too thick and the pencil does not stain the sheet of paper.
The paper density is chosen based on the method of coloring the finished illustration. Thick sheets are used if the drawing is colored with paints.
