Materials needed:
- Paper
- Pencil
- Eraser
- Markers or crayons
Step 1: Draw the Goat’s Head
Start by drawing a small oval shape at the top of your paper. This will serve as the goat’s head.
Step 2: Add the Facial Features
Next, draw two small circular shapes for the eyes, just below the head. Inside each eye, draw a smaller circle for the pupils. Then, draw a curved line below the eyes for the goat’s nose. Add a smiling mouth by drawing a curved line below the nose.
Step 3: Draw the Goat’s Ears
On top of the goat’s head, draw two long, curved shapes for the ears. Make sure the ears are slightly pointy at the tips.
Step 4: Add the Goat’s Body
Extend a curved line downwards from each side of the goat’s head to create the body. Join these lines at the bottom with a curved line to complete the body shape.
Step 5: Draw the Legs
At the bottom of the goat’s body, draw two straight lines that bend slightly inwards to form the front legs. Repeat this step to draw the hind legs in proportion to the front legs.
Step 6: Add Details
To complete the goat’s body, draw small U-shaped lines for the hooves at the end of each leg. Then, draw short lines for the tail and a line down the center of each ear to create texture. You can also add a patch of hair on the goat’s chin by drawing small curved lines.
Step 7: Color Your Goat
Finally, grab your markers or crayons and bring your goat to life with colors of your choice. You can color the goat’s body in white or brown and add shades of gray or black for the hooves and other details.
