Print

  1. Step 1: The snowman's head

    On the left of your paper, a little above the middle, draw a round circle for the snowman's head.

    Tip Leave the right side of the page for a big Christmas tree.

  2. Step 2: Snowman face

    On the head, draw 2 round eyes with black dots, a pointy carrot nose sticking out right, and a smile.

  3. Step 3: Top hat

    On top of the head, draw a long flat brim, then a tall box on it for a top hat.

  4. Step 4: Snowman body

    Under the head, draw a much bigger circle for the snowman's body.

  5. Step 5: Scarf

    Round the neck, draw a wavy scarf band. Hang its tail down the front of the body.

  6. Step 6: Buttons and arms

    Draw 3 buttons down the middle of the body. Add a stick arm with a twig out each side.

  7. Step 7: The tree top

    On the right, draw the top of the tree: a pointy triangle with a 5-point star on the point.

  8. Step 8: Two more tiers

    Under the first triangle, draw a wider one behind it, then a wider one still, each with a flat bottom.

  9. Step 9: Trunk and ground

    Under the bottom tier, draw a short box trunk. Then draw a ground line across the bottom of the page.

  10. Step 10: Baubles

    Draw six round baubles scattered over the tree, none touching the edges.

  11. Step 11: Presents

    Under the tree, draw a present box each side of the trunk. Add a ribbon of 2 lines across each.

  12. Step 12: Snowflakes

    In the sky, draw 3 small snowflakes, each made of 3 short lines crossing in the middle.

  13. Step 13: Yellow star, orange carrot

    Colour the star yellow and the carrot nose orange. Leave the snowman and his eyes white.

  14. Step 14: Red scarf and presents

    Colour the scarf, the baubles and the presents red, leaving the ribbons white.

  15. Step 15: Green tree, black hat

    Colour the tree leaf green around the baubles, the trunk brown, and the hat and buttons black.
