About this printable
Start with a backyard kind of dog, not a branded cartoon. This how to draw a dog for kids printable builds floppy ears, a sturdy body, and four simple legs in four steps. Pause after the head so the ears hang from the sides instead of sticking straight up like a cat. Kids can pretend the oval body is a beanbag the puppy sits on. Count the legs out loud as you draw them so none get forgotten. A small spot on the side makes the pup feel finished without extra clutter. Use this sheet before a walk, after school, or during a quiet indoor recess. When the smile is in place, try a second drawing with a longer tail or a ball near the paws for extra practice today.
