How to Draw a Princess Step-by-Step for Kids
Updated on July 25, 2016
As
my three students Nadia, Carolina and Teresa will tell you, my princess
drawings are "the goodest in the world." (Ah, from the mouth of babes!)
I have been drawing princesses for my girls ever since I started working at my nursery school. In fact, every morning, they form a long line in front of my desk, black marker and sheet of paper in hand, ready to describe the princess they would like. Long hair, short hair, high heels, flats, strapless dresses or puffy sleeves - you name it, I draw it. As you can imagine, I have had to become quick and efficient at drawing princesses to meet the high demand!
On this page, you will find an easy tutorial about how to draw a princess step by step for children. My princesses have a simple design, but are pretty, easy to colour, and most importantly, fast to draw. Along with the tutorial, I have also included a couple of free princess colouring pages which you can print off and give to your girls to colour! There is also a helpful video tutorial you can follow if you'd like to see me go through the steps of drawing a princess.
On this note, I'd say it's about time we stopped reading and started drawing. Got your pens ready? Let's create a beautiful princess!

These lovely princesses are simple and fast to draw!
1. The Face (part I)

To
start your one-minute princess, draw a three-quarter oval for the face
as shown in the picture to your right. Follow up by drawing two round
ovals for the eyes, a small pointy nose, and a smiling mouth. Be sure to
include the "smile lines" at each side of the mouth - my girls complain
if I forget to draw them in!
2. The Face (part II)

Continue
to fill in the details of the face by drawing in the eyelids, each
complete with two eyelashes. You should now have a pretty little face
looking back at you.
One of the simplest hairstyles you can do is long-hair with a right-hand parting. To draw the parting, simply draw three lines running down the front of her forehead, just above her eyes to represent the hair. Then, draw another line perpendicular to these three lines to represent the parting. On the other side of this line, draw another slightly rounder line to represent the hair on the other side of her head.

3. The Hair

For
me, the hair is the most entertaining part of drawing a princess. In
this case, our princess has long, straight hair. To create her hair,
simply draw 3-4 flowing lines sprouting out of her head and fringe.
Obviously, not all girls will want a princess with long, straight hair. More often than not, they will want a princess in their own image, which means you may be asked to draw short curly hair, pigtails, ponytails, buns or various other styles. To see examples of other popular hairstyles, have a look at the thumbnails below!

4. The Neck, Shoulders and Crown

Now it's time to sketch in the neck, shoulders and crown!
The neck is easy, as all you need to do is draw two straight lines downwards, one coming from the ear and the other from the chin.
The shoulders extend from the neck, reaching out just beyond the outer strands of hair. Along with the shoulders, you can also draw in the top section of the dress. In this case, I've given her a fur collar with a heart pendant in the centre. I've also given her a pearl necklace to make her appear even more regal!

5. The Upper Body

How
you draw the upper body really depends on the body type you want to
give your princess. I prefer to give mine a small chest and
average-sized waist so they don't end up looking a Barbie doll. (We
don't want to send out the wrong message to our girls!)
If you want to draw a childlike princess, all you have to do flatten the chest by drawing two straight lines down towards the waist. If you like, you can give your princess a belt as I have done here, or you can leave it plain.

6. The Arms

Drawing
the arms of a princess can be tricky, especially in terms of getting
the length correct. A few times I have ended up with a princess that
resembles either Mr. Tickle from the Mr. Men series, or Stumpy! Try to
have the arms arrive just below the waist for the most natural look
possible.
If drawing fingers makes you nervous, you can always draw "mitten hands" as I have done with this princess. Children don't seem to mind either way!

7. The Dress and the Final Product

Here
is the part in which you can go wild! Dresses exists in many forms, so
just use your imagination. In this case, I have drawn a long, broad
dress decorated with a girl's favourite symbol, the heart. To make it
look as if the dress is trailing along the ground, draw a slightly wider
oval-shaped base as I have done here. I have also included a number of
wavy layers so that my girls can vary the colouring of the dress.
The shoes can either peep out from underneath the dress as in the case of this princess, or you can have her wearing prominent high heels. I usually ask my students which they would prefer.
