Depending on the age of your student, this might be the second art session for this project.
Sweet Easter Bunny Drawing for Kids
Have you discovered Emma Randall yet? She is one of our favorite children’s illustrators.
For our Spring Bundle, we wanted a sweet Easter Bunny drawing. So, like most of our homeschooling life, when we need inspiration, we look in a book. (Super Why anyone?)
Finding Easter Bunny Drawing Illustrations
Randall captures the essence of spring and the whimsy of Easter with a joyful folk-art style in Our Easter Adventure.
Incidentally, we were working through a Marie Curie unit and tied this in when we examined the Polish portion of our unit.
Famous for their folk art and gorgeous eggs, it was an easy tie-in and fit well with the spring timing.
Save this Easter Bunny Drawing Project for later!
Our Easter Adventure
This book is beautiful!
I always prefer to buy direct from the artist when possible, but this isn’t on her site currently, so I’m linking to bookshop.org.
In case you’re not familar with them, they’re an online site supporting independent bookstores.
Who wouldn’t love to get a new book and contribute to the success of a small bookshop while you’re at it!
If you’re looking for a different springtime book for your literature-based art studies, consider Randall’s fun and whimsical “How to Trap a Leprechaun.”
Step 2.
Up next, draw the actual shape of the face and since this is a rabbit or bunny, the cheeks have to be puffy or fluffy. Draw in the shapes of the eyes and then draw the tuft on his head.
Step 3.
Up next, draw the big tall ears, and then draw the long open jaw. The chin should be hairy as well and there should be some fangs or teeth in the mouth. Add the nose and long whiskers too.
Step 4.
It’s time to draw in the scary Easter bunny’s arms. There is a slash in the right forearm, but you can leave that out if you want. When the arms are drawn you can sketch out the hands and claws.
Materials
- Black marker
- Bunny template (printed on white paper)
- Watercolors
- Paintbrush
- Pencil and ruler
Draw lines to make patterns in each section of the bunny.
You can glue your bunny on colored card stock or construction paper, or create your own background with watercolors. We decided to draw a patterned background which we’ve colored with watercolors.
Glue the bunny and glasses on your paper once dry. Voilà!
Have so much fun!
