How to Draw a Kite Shape
Draw a kite shape 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: big kite shape.
Step 1: Big kite shape
Near the middle draw one big kite shape: a point on top, one each side, and a long point below.
Tip A kite shape has 2 short sides on top and 2 long sides below.
Step 2: Two big eyes
In the middle of the kite draw 2 round eyes. Colour a black dot in each, leaving a white shine.
Step 3: A smile
Under the eyes draw a small U smile, from under the left eye to under the right eye.
Step 4: Rosy cheeks
Beside the ends of the smile draw a tiny sideways oval on each side.
Step 5: A shine
In the top left of the kite draw one short curved shine line.
Step 6: Sparkles on the left
On the left of the kite draw 2 sparkle stars, one higher and one lower.
Step 7: Sparkles on the right
Draw 2 more sparkle stars on the right to match.
Step 8: Floor and shadow
Draw a flat oval shadow under the kite's point. From each end, draw a floor line out to the side.
Step 9: Pink cheeks, yellow sparkles
Colour the cheeks rosy pink and the sparkles yellow.
Step 10: Teal kite, grey shadow
Leave the eyes white. Colour the kite teal around the cheeks, and the shadow grey. Your kite shape is done!
