How to Draw Everything: An Easy Step-by-Step Drawing Book for Kids

Looking for an easy drawing book for kids? Discover 111 step-by-step drawings of animals, food, flowers, gifts, and more, with plenty of room to practice.

Some kids know exactly what they want to draw. Others sit down with a pencil and ask the same question: "What should I draw?" A drawing book with many different themes can help with both.

111 Things to Learn How to Draw

How to Draw Everything: 111 Easy Step-by-Step Drawings for Kids gives young artists a large collection of simple drawing ideas in one book. Instead of focusing on just animals, food, flowers, or other individual themes, children can explore many different subjects and choose what they feel like drawing that day.

The book includes 111 step-by-step drawings covering cute animals, flowers, foods, gifts, and other familiar and fun subjects.

That variety matters for children who enjoy drawing but quickly lose interest when every page follows the same theme.

One day they can draw an animal. Another day they can choose food, a flower, or something completely different.

There is always another drawing to try.

Easy Step-by-Step Drawing for Beginners

Children do not need to know how to draw before opening the book.

Each picture is broken down into simple steps that show how the drawing develops from beginning to end. The book was created for beginning artists and uses large, easy-to-follow drawings.

Instead of asking a child to copy a finished picture all at once, step-by-step drawing gives them a clear place to begin and shows them what comes next.

This can make drawing feel much more approachable.

More Than One Chance to Practice

Learning to draw usually takes more than looking at an example once.

That is why the book includes two types of practice for each drawing, along with space where children can work on their own.

Children can follow the example, practice the drawing, and then try again.

They can also color their finished pictures.

This turns each activity into more than a quick drawing exercise.

Drawing Without a Screen

Drawing is also an easy screen-free activity.

A child needs only the book and basic drawing supplies to get started. There is no video to follow, app to open, or device to charge.

Children can choose a picture, work through the steps at their own pace, and spend time creating something themselves.

That makes the book useful for quiet afternoons at home, weekends, vacations, travel, or any time a child asks for something to do.

What Age Is This Drawing Book For?

The book is designed for children who are beginning to draw. The publisher describes it as suitable for children ages 5 and older.

Because the drawings are taught step by step, children can move through the book at their own pace rather than needing to complete activities in a particular order.

A Drawing Book Kids Can Keep Coming Back To

With 111 different drawing ideas, children do not have to finish the book from beginning to end.

They can flip through the pages and choose whatever interests them.

Today it might be a cute animal.

Tomorrow it might be food or a flower.

Later they can return to an earlier drawing and see if they can draw it again.

That freedom is part of what makes a large collection of drawing ideas useful: the question "What can I draw?" already has 111 possible answers.
