Drawing Made Easy – How to Draw Mushrooms for Kids? 

Drawing is an excellent teaching technique to decrease the complexity of kids’ learning. When compared to any other drawing topic, mushroom drawing for kids is a simple and engaging exercise for them to participate in. Kids can easily follow the step-by-step instructions listed below and effortlessly picture a wonderful mushroom. 

Step 1: Collect paper, pencil, eraser, black marker, and colour supplies. 

Step 2: Use a reference image if needed. By referring to an image, kids can easily sketch the portrait. Do not try to imitate or copy the same picture as that of the reference image. Use your imagination and creatively craft your own versions of mushrooms. 

Step 3: Start by drawing the top of the mushroom. Use a curved line which is almost similar to an inverted ‘C’ to form the mushroom cap. 

Step 4: Sketch the bottom part of the mushroom cap. Draw another curved line connecting the edges of the line drawn in the previous step. 

Step 5: Use another curved line to outline the mushroom stem below the bottom part of the mushroom cap. 

Step 6: Add details to the mushroom by randomly drawing complete and incomplete oval shapes on the cap of the mushroom. 

Step 7: If interested, kids can decorate the mushroom by using various drawing techniques. The mushroom will appear beautiful even if kids are not willing to apply further effects on it. 

Step 8: Complete the exercise by filling with colours. Use red, beige, and white colours to fill the mushroom and make it attractive. 

Mushrooms are one of the most important topics that kids have to be taught about. There are a great many varieties of mushrooms on our planet. They have to be made aware of differentiating edible and inedible mushrooms. The image that we have learnt to draw in this exercise is that of an inedible one. If your little one is ardently willing to learn to draw more images, there are numerous similar exercises available on BYJU’S website to refer to. 

Engaging in worksheets, essays, poems, short stories etc., will help them think out of the box.
