How To Draw A Simple Starfish That Kids Love (with Video)

9/19/2015

 
I've received some emails from people asking me how to draw a starfish so I thought I would create a blog post. Starfish (also known as Sea Stars) are beautiful and in this post I am going to show you five ways to draw starfish. 

Drawing is a great activity to do with your kids and it can be easy and fun too. Drawing will also allow your children to use their imaginations and be creative. I will show you how to draw a starfish and also a few different ways to make this project a little more fun for the kids.

Helpful tip: Use a pencil to outline your starfish so your child doesn't get frustrated or upset when drawing. Little ones can tend to be impatient as they too strive for perfection
The best way to teach kids how to draw a starfish is by creating a dot-to-dot.
Here are a few I created to make it easier for you.
