How to Draw Farm Animals
Want to learn how to draw farm animals? Grab this free printable showing you how to draw farm animals step by step. Animals that are included are a Chicken, Cow, Pig, Duck, Sheep, Rooster, Horse and Turkey!
Not all of use are gifted with the innate ability to draw something. I can draw a fabulous stick person, but that’s about where my drawing abilities end. Some kids are naturally gifted at drawing, but others aren’t. Either way, there’s always room for improvement and always something new to draw!
These free printable pages give you a step by step guide on how to draw farm animals. Each page gives you five steps to follow so that you can easily draw each animal. Step by step drawing guides are so much fun because it takes a lot of the frustration and guess work out of drawing.
These guides are on a bit more of the difficult side, so I’d recommend only using them with older children. But while they’re learning to draw each animal, your younger kids will have a blast with these safari count and trace worksheets, or even animal connect the dots. You could also do this Fall handprints and thumbprints activity!
Print off as many pages as you’d like so that you can perfect your skills as you learn to draw each animal! It’s so fun and soon you won’t even need the step by step guide.

Supplies Needed to Learn How to Draw Farm Animals Step by Step
- Drawing supplies – You can use mechanical pencils, regular pencils, or even erasable colored pencils. I like having separate erasers to use too! Any of your favorite drawing supplies will work just fine. However, I do not recommend using pens or markers as you start to learn to draw farm animals step by step.
- Printer – As long as your printer can print in black and white, then you’re good to go! IF you don’t have a printer, you can pull these up on your computer screen and draw on a piece of scratch paper. Or, go to your local library and see if they will allow you to print the pages there!
- Optional: Coloring supplies – After you draw your masterpiece, it would be extra fun to color it! We love these twistable crayons in my house. They seem to last forever. But you could also use colored pencils and markers too!
