Step 1: Guide shapes
Lightly sketch these 2 ovals. They only show where the big parts go, so press softly. You will erase them at the end.
Step 2: The big round head
Draw a big, wide oval for the head, but leave a small gap at the top where the ears will sit. Start at one side of the gap, curve down around the bottom, and stop at the other side.
Step 3: Body sides and wings
Under the head, draw a curved line down from each side of the chin to start the round tummy, and close it with a short curve at the bottom. Then add a tall bean shape on each side of the body for the wings.
Step 4: Two flat feet
At the bottom of the body, draw two wide, flat shapes like little rectangles with wavy edges. Leave a small gap between them.
Step 5: The headband
Near the top of the head, draw two wavy lines curving across from side to side, one just above the other, to make the band. Add a few tiny dashes above the middle where the fluffy tuft will go.
Step 6: Bunny ears and tuft
On each side of the top, draw a tall, rounded-top loop that starts at the headband. Draw a smaller loop inside each ear, then scribble a little fluffy tuft in the middle between the ears.
Step 7: Two dot eyes
Halfway down the face, draw two small filled dots, one on each side. Keep them at the same height and far apart for a sweet look.
Step 8: The little beak
Between the eyes, draw a short, flat-topped triangle pointing down, with rounded corners. Add a smaller triangle inside near the bottom for the open beak.
All done!
Erase the guide shapes, go over your lines, then color it in.

Tips for drawing a chick in bunny ears
- Draw the head oval first and make it big. The ears, headband, and face all depend on it, so a roomy head makes everything else easier to fit.
- The ears are the trickiest part. Draw the tall outer loop first, then add the smaller loop inside it, leaving an even gap all the way around.
- Keep the two eyes at the same height and the beak right in the middle between them. A quick light line across the face can help you line them up.
