How to draw a face

One egg shape, and the eyes go right in the middle. Watch the video, follow along on paper, then bring your face to life.

Ages 6–13Paper + pencilAbout 10 minutes

Draw it step by step

Six steps to a face

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

1

Start with the head

Draw a big egg standing up. Rounder at the top, narrower at the chin.

2

Add two ears

One ear on each side, halfway down, like two little C shapes.

3

Two eyes in the middle

Two big dot eyes right across the middle of the egg. Eyes always sit lower than you think.

4

Nose and mouth

A little hook for the nose, then a big smile under it.

5

Add the hair

One wavy line across the forehead. Everything above it is hair.

6

Finishing touches

Two eyebrows, a few freckles, and one little earring. Now this face is yours.

Practice on paper

The magic part

Animate your drawing with AI

Finished drawing? In a Kubrio project, your kid turns this paper face into a real animated film — with Kubrio's AI thinking partners at their side. The little blink 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.
