We have divided drawing Santa into 12 small steps. Some are very easy, while others may seem a bit more difficult. If any of the steps seem too difficult to draw, practice on a separate sheet of paper. Once you have gained the necessary skill, draw that element to your Santa.

You can also ask your parents or older siblings for help. Don’t worry if something doesn’t work out the first time. Practice will make you a master!

Step 1

We will start our drawing of Santa by drawing an oval nose and slightly upward-twisted mustache.

Now draw two lines extending slightly outwards from the mustache. This will be Santa’s head.

And under the mustache, draw his mouth.

Step 5

Let’s draw our Santa’s eyes and eyebrows.

This step is the most difficult, so it might be a good idea to practice drawing these elements on a separate sheet of paper. Once you get the hang of it, draw your Santa’s eyes and eyebrows.

Santa without a beard?! No way!

So draw a beard of any shape, and then add ears to the sides of it.

To keep Santa warm, let’s draw him a coat.

It should be quite long, almost to the ground.

Step 8

To make sure the coat fits snugly on Santa’s belly, he’ll need a belt!

Let’s start by drawing a buckle, made up of two squares.

Now that we have the belt buckle, draw the rest of it, which will be created by the lines drawn on both sides of the buckle.

Meanwhile, the lines drawn up and down will be the decoration of the coat.
