Step 1: Guide shapes
Lightly sketch this oval. It only shows where the big parts go, so press softly. You will erase it at the end.
Step 2: The head
Draw a wide, slightly squished oval near the middle of the page. This will be the bunny's head.
Step 3: Body sides
Start at the left side of the head and draw a long curved line going down. Then start at the right side of the head and draw another line down, with a little hook at the top for the arm.
Step 4: Two long ears
On top of the head, draw two tall, skinny ovals that lean a little apart. Let the bottom of each ear touch the head.
Step 5: Inner ears
Inside each ear, draw one short curved line that follows the ear's shape on the inside.
Step 6: Face and paw
Add two round dots for eyes, a small rounded triangle for the nose, and a little wavy smile below it. Then, on the right side, draw a small circle for the paw with a short curved line below it.
Step 7: Feet and tail
At the bottom of the body, draw two flat ovals side by side for the feet. On the right side near the bottom, add a small curl that loops out from the body for the tail.
Step 8: The heart balloon
To the upper right of the paw, draw a big heart with two bumps on top and a point at the bottom. Make it nice and round so it looks full of air.
Step 9: The balloon string
Start at the point of the heart and draw a wiggly line that curves down to the paw. Stop when the line touches the paw so the bunny holds on tight.
All done!
Erase the guide shapes, go over your lines, then color it in.

Tips for drawing a bunny with a balloon
- Draw the head oval first and keep it wide, because the ears and body both connect to it.
- The heart is the trickiest part, so draw the two bumps on top first, then curve down to a point at the bottom.
- For the wiggly string, draw it slowly with a relaxed hand, and let it curve gently from the heart down to the paw.
