This cartoon moose has a round head, wide flat antlers, a big muzzle and a pear shaped body. Watch each step being drawn in pencil, then copy it on your own paper. It works for kids from about age 6 and for adult beginners too.
Copy the dark lines in each step. The grey lines are the parts you already drew.
In the upper part of your page, leave space at the top for the antlers. Draw a round head that gets a little narrower at the bottom, like an upside down egg. Press lightly so you can fix it later.
▶ Watch this step
On each side of the head, draw an ear shaped like a leaf, pointing out. On top of the head, draw two wide, flat antlers going out to the sides. Give each one a bumpy edge, like the fingers of an open hand.
▶ Watch this step
In the upper half of the face, draw two big round eyes with a white shine. Add a pink oval on each cheek.
▶ Watch this step
At the bottom of the face, draw a big light oval for the muzzle. Let it hang down a little past the head. Inside it, draw two small nostrils and a smile under them.
▶ Watch this step
Under the head, draw a body that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, like a pear. On the tummy, draw a light oval.
▶ Watch this step
Draw two thin front legs with dark hooves, a round back leg on each side and a small tail. Under the chin, draw a little flap of fur.

Color the fur dark brown and the antlers light brown. Color the muzzle and tummy cream, the hooves and nostrils very dark brown and the inner ears pink.
▶ Watch this stepKeep your first lines soft, then press harder once you like the shape.
