Print

  1. Step 1: Head and ears

    Near the top draw a big egg head. Add a C ear on each side, joined to the head.

    Tip Leave most of the page below for the body.

  2. Step 2: A friendly face

    Low on the head draw 2 round eyes with black dots and shines. Add a U smile underneath.

    Tip Keep the top half of the head empty for the brain.

  3. Step 3: Neck and arms

    Each side: from the chin draw the neck, shoulder and arm, round a mitten hand and up to the armpit.

    Tip The arm gets thinner towards the wrist. The little thumb points in.

  4. Step 4: Body and legs

    From each armpit draw down the side, round a leg and foot, and up to meet in the middle.

    Tip The feet point out a little and are flat underneath.

  5. Step 5: Shorts and floor

    For shorts, draw lines from side to side at the waist and across each leg. Finish with a floor line.

  6. Step 6: The brain

    In the top of the head draw a bumpy cloud for the brain. Add a wiggly line down its middle.

  7. Step 7: The heart

    In the middle of the chest, a little to the right, draw a small heart.

  8. Step 8: Two lungs

    Draw a lung each side of the heart, round on top, wide below. The right one tucks behind the heart.

  9. Step 9: The stomach

    Under the heart, on the right, draw a fat bean with a little tail pointing left: the stomach.

  10. Step 10: The intestines

    Across the tummy draw a long pillow shape. Inside it draw one wiggly line going right, left and right again.

  11. Step 11: Peach skin

    Colour the skin peach, going round the brain and all the shapes in the body. Leave the eyes white.

  12. Step 12: Yellow and orange

    Colour the long intestines yellow and the stomach orange.

  13. Step 13: Pink brain and lungs

    Colour the brain and both lungs pink.

  14. Step 14: Red heart, blue shorts

    Colour the heart red and the shorts blue. Go over your lines and your human body is done!
