About this printable
Big ears and a trunk turn a gray oval into an elephant. This how to draw an elephant for kids lesson puts the body first so the head has a place to join. Ears are tall ovals. The trunk is a question-mark curve that can hold a pretend peanut later. Zoo trips help, but skip movie elephants. Legs are four posts. A rope tail is one line with a small tuft. If the trunk looks like a hose with no end, add a little U at the tip. Classroom continents units can use this page beside a simple map. Color slowly. Kids often want wrinkles; two curved lines on the trunk are enough. Write the elephant's made-up name under the drawing when you are done.
