Step 1: The beanstalk
Draw a ground line. From the ground on the left, draw a thick stalk winding up to the top right.

Step 2: Jack's head
Near the bottom, right of the stalk, draw a small round head. Add a bumpy cap of hair on top.
Step 3: Jack's face
On the head, draw 2 round eyes with a dot and a shine each, and a small smile under them.
Step 4: Tunic and arms
Under the head, draw a tunic. Add 2 arms with mittens, one reaching up to the stalk, one hanging down.
Step 5: Legs and boots
From the tunic, draw 2 short legs down to the ground, with a boot on each pointing out.

On the left of the stalk, draw 2 big pointed leaves, one low and one high, each with a vein.

Step 9: The giant's castle
On the cloud, draw a castle block with 2 towers. Add an arched door from the bottom, back to it.
