How to Draw a Costa Rica Flag
Draw a costa rica flag in 10 easy steps, about 8 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: pole and ground.
Step 1: Pole and ground
Draw a tall thin pole on the left, a ball on top, and a ground line from edge to edge.
Step 2: Top and side
Start on the pole below the ball. Draw a wavy line right, then straight down. Stop halfway down the pole.
Tip This flag is long: nearly twice as long as it is tall.
Step 3: Bottom edge
Start at the bottom of the straight side. Draw a wavy line back to the pole.
Tip The bottom edge copies the waves of the top edge.
Step 4: Two top lines
Near the top draw 2 wavy lines across the flag, from the pole to the right edge.
Tip They make 2 thin bands at the top, both the same height.
Step 5: Two bottom lines
Near the bottom draw 2 more wavy lines across, leaving a wide band in the middle.
Tip The middle band is twice as tall as each thin band.
Step 6: Wind lines
Off the right edge of the flag draw 3 short wind lines.
Step 7: Yellow ball
Colour the ball on top of the pole yellow.
Step 8: Grey pole
Colour the pole grey.
Step 9: Red band
Colour the wide middle band red.
Step 10: Blue bands
Colour the top band and the bottom band blue. Leave the 2 thin bands next to the red white.
Tip Go over your lines. Your Costa Rica flag is waving!
