How to Draw: Cool Stuff - Monsters, Aliens, Robots, And More

How to Draw: Cool Stuff - Monsters, Aliens, Robots, And More is an art activity for children who want to construct a varied cartoon cast themselves, using a sequence of six drawing stages.

The activity experience

A changing set of creatures and machines offers a new subject when a child wants variety. The How to Draw format is intended for ages 5 and up, with the character built in stages and a dedicated drawing page for practice.

The activity has a clear first task—make the pencil picture—and an optional second one: decorate the finished work. Color can give the drawing a new mood, while a setting or small added object can extend the idea. Choose two different kinds of character and imagine them sharing a small adventure.

This is a good format to consider when a child asks how a varied cartoon cast are made rather than simply wanting an outline to color. The steps provide a route into the drawing, and the completed character can become the beginning of a larger art project.
