How to Draw an Electric Mouse
Draw an electric mouse in 11 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: round head.
Step 1: Round head
Near the top draw a big round head, fuller at the bottom than the top, with a cheek each side.
Tip Keep the bottom one smooth round curve, like a bowl.
Step 2: Two round ears
High on each side of the head draw a big round ear like a cookie, with a smaller circle inside.
Step 3: Two shiny eyes
Above the cheeks, draw 2 big round eyes, one eye apart. Fill them black and leave a white shine.
Step 4: Tiny nose
Under the eyes, draw a tiny triangle nose. From its point, draw a short line down, stopping after a finger.
Step 5: Smile and red cheeks
From the bottom of that line, draw a little smile out each side. Draw a round circle on each cheek.
Step 6: Small round body
Start under the left cheek. Draw a round cushion body down and back up to the right cheek.
Tip No neck. Keep the body narrower than the cheeks.
Step 7: Arms and paws
From under each cheek, draw a short arm that bends in to a round paw on the tummy.
Tip Add 2 tiny toe lines on each paw.
Step 8: Big feet
Draw a ground line under the body. Draw a big plump foot at each bottom corner, with 2 toe lines.
Step 9: Lightning tail
Start behind the right foot. Zigzag a fat lightning bolt up past the cheek, then back down to the head.
Tip Make the bolt about as wide as an eye, with a flat top.
Step 10: Yellow all over
Colour the mouse yellow all over, around the cheeks, ear insides and nose. Leave the eyes white.
Step 11: Red cheeks, pink ears
Colour the two round cheeks red, the insides of the ears pink and the tiny nose black.
