How to draw a mermaid for children:

1. First we need to draw the outline of the mermaid’s face, a very large curve.

2. Draw her eyebrows, eyes, mouth and ears in the outline of her face. These are very simple shapes. We can also draw a pattern on her cheeks. A little blush, just use an ellipsis instead.

3. The mermaid’s hair is also very beautiful. We have to be careful and draw a head of fluffy and elegant hair for her. Just make the arc as large as possible.

4. Draw her graceful figure not far from the end of the hair. We can draw her clothes with two ovals and add two arcs on them.

5. After completing the previous step, we will draw her shoulders and two arms. The shoulders should start from the chin, and the two arms should go vertically. The hands should be spread to both sides to make it more beautiful. A little more feminine.

6. Here comes the iconic step. We have to draw her fish tail, a soft and clean arc, slowly approaching the end.

7. We need to use a small fan-shaped figure to connect the tail. A fluttering arc at the tip of the tail will look better. Finally, use some small arcs to decorate the tail with fish scales, and then give the mermaid a beautiful hairpin. Our simple drawing is completed.
