How to draw a rose — easy step-by-step drawing for kids
Draw a rose in 6 simple steps. In every picture the new lines are orange and the lines you have already drawn are grey — so you always know what to add next.
Step by step
Step 1 Start in the middle with a small curly spiral — the tight centre of the rose.
Step 2 Draw a cup-shaped petal around the spiral.
Step 3 Add one big petal on each side, curving down to a point.
Step 4 Draw two small pointed leaves (sepals) under the flower.
Step 5 Draw a long stem going down, with two little thorns.
Step 6 Add a leaf on each side of the stem, with a line down the middle. Colour your rose!
Drawing tips for kids
✏️ Draw lightly first Use a pencil and press softly — light lines are easy to rub out.
🔍 Look at the orange lines Each step adds only the orange lines. Everything grey is already on your paper.
🔵 Start with big shapes Circles, ovals and triangles first; small details like eyes and whiskers last.
🎨 Colour it in Go over the final lines with a dark pencil or pen, then colour your picture any way you like.
