How to draw a koala

Two big fluffy ears, a big oval nose, and a tree to hug. Watch the video, follow along on paper, then bring your koala to life.

Draw it step by step

Six steps to a koala

New lines are purple. Lines you already drew turn light.

1

Start with the head

Draw one big circle. Wobbly is fine — wobbly circles make friendly koalas.

2

Two fluffy ears

A big round ear on each top corner, with a few zigzag tufts on the outside.

3

Give it a face

Two small dot eyes, a big oval nose in the middle, and a sleepy smile.

4

Draw the tree

Two long lines from the top of the page to the bottom, next to the head.

5

Body, an arm, and a leg

Draw a round body that leans on the tree. Add an arm that reaches out to the tree, then a bent leg below it.

6

Finishing touches

Fluff in each ear, little claws where the paws grip the tree, and a twig with two long leaves. Now this koala is yours.

Now draw a koala who is wide awake for once.

Practice on paper

The magic part

Animate your drawing with AI

Finished drawing? In a Kubrio project, your kid turns this paper koala into a real animated film — with Kubrio's AI thinking partners at their side. The little ear twitch below is a wink; the real clips go much further.

Ingenious projects that inspire kids to make things — until they find the thing only they could make.
Ages 6–13.
