How to Draw a Spring Bunny

April 13 -17

Hello My Most Amazing Parents & Artists,

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend with your families. Thank you for sending me all the beautiful pictures of your artist's Easter daffodils!

I thought, I would include some accommodation and enrichment activities to help you and share with our artists after watching my videos. This week's sketchbook art activity is titled: How to Draw a Spring Bunny.

Connecting students to science, reading, and social studies (art history)

Elements of Art: line, shape, color, value, space, texture

Follow along with me for this week's sketchbook art activity:

How to Draw a Spring Bunny

K3 & K4

tape your bunny drawing to a window, tape your child's paper to the window on top of yours, allow your child to trace the outlines, remove their picture so they can add color to their shapes (skills: tracing, identifying shapes, coloring neatly, fine motor, focus, patience)
use your imagination to draw & color your own rabbit (small ovals=ears, medium oval=head, large oval=body, half circle or semicircle for tail)
read The Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Williams or watch the Disney movie Bambi by David Hand

K5-3rd Grades

choose from the above
draw the stuffed rabbit or Thumper from the book and movie listed above
make a spring bunny picture using only crayons, another in colored pencils, just oil pastels, or try paint
use your imagination to add your own colors and/or background details
draw your own radial flowers on construction paper using a marker or crayons, cut them out, & glue them to the ground of your picture (overlapping them on your bunny is alright)
read The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter and draw a rabbit dressed up in clothes

4th-6th Grades

choose from all of the above
draw a landscape with a rabbit in a forest, field, or garden using crayons, markers, colored pencils, oil pastels or paint
