With Spring in full bloom there is no better time to learn how to draw daffodils step by step! My easy to draw daffodil tutorial is simple enough for Kindergarten kids, and pretty enough for adults to want to draw yellow flowers.
How to Draw Daffodils Easy and Quickly
Daffodils are such a pretty bright flower that appear at the first sign of Spring! They make an excellent Spring drawing idea for kids and adults alike.
You can use your easy to draw daffodils on the front of a Birthday, Mother’s Day or Get Well Soon card.
Alternatively use them to make some pretty posters to decorate your home.
Why not do lots of flower drawings and stick them onto some bunting to make a garland. The opportunities are endless.
Compared to some of my other easy drawings for kids this one is much simpler. If you like flowers I would also recommend my rose drawing which is perfect for Valentine’s Day or indeed any time of the year.
