How to Draw a Kids Playing Soccer
Draw a kids playing soccer in 13 easy steps, about 10 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: two egg heads.
Step 1: Two egg heads
Draw 2 egg heads side by side, one on the left and one on the right.
Tip Leave a wide gap between them for the ball, and lots of room below.
Step 2: Happy faces
On each face draw 2 oval eyes with black dots looking at the middle, and a smile.
Tip Leave a tiny white dot in each black dot for a shine.
Step 3: Two hairstyles
Start at one side of each head and stop at the other: tufty hair, then smooth hair with bunches.
Tip The bunches are 2 round puffs, one beside each cheek.
Step 4: Necks and jerseys
Draw 2 neck lines. Start at one, draw a jersey with short sleeves, and stop at the other.
Step 5: Arms and hands
Start at each sleeve. Draw an arm down, round a mitten hand, back up, and stop at the sleeve.
Tip Bend each arm out a little at the elbow.
Step 6: Shorts
Start at a jersey corner. Draw shorts down, up between the legs, and stop at the other corner.
Tip The shorts leg nearest the ball tilts towards it.
Step 7: Standing legs
Start at each outside shorts leg. Draw down, across the ankle, and stop at the shorts. Add a sock line.
Tip Make each leg thinner at the knee and rounder at the calf.
Step 8: Kicking legs
Start at each inside shorts leg. Draw a bent leg down. Stop at the shorts. Add a sock line.
Tip Bend the knee towards the ball: the top of the leg leans in, then the shin drops down.
Step 9: Boots and ground
Start at each ankle. Draw a boot round and stop at the other side. Add a ground line.
Tip Standing boots point out. Kicking boots point at the ball.
Step 10: The ball
Between the kicking boots draw a round ball. Add a 5-sided patch and 5 lines to edge patches.
Tip Sit the ball on the ground line, touching both toes.
Step 11: Skin colours
Colour each child's face, neck, arms, hands and knees in their skin colour. Leave the eyes white.
Step 12: Red and yellow jerseys
Colour one jersey red and the other yellow.
Step 13: Navy shorts, black boots
Colour the shorts navy and the hair, boots and ball patches black. Leave the socks white. Goal!
