Ideas for children's New Year's drawings for children

Of course, the most important characters in children's drawings on the New Year theme are Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden. It is they who participate in all theatrical performances on the theme of the New Year and bring such long-awaited gifts that the kids are happy to take out from under the Christmas tree.

You can draw in different ways. Today, each child has his own vision of these characters, so their image may differ significantly. As a rule, Grandfather Frost is depicted in a bright red fur coat, warm mittens and felt boots, while the Snow Maiden, in turn, is “dressed up” in a beautiful blue robe.

The invariable attributes of Santa Claus in children's drawings are his long white beard, staff and a large bag with gifts, and in most cases his granddaughter is drawn with a long braid. In addition, these characters are often depicted on a sleigh pulled by deer.

Another heroine of New Year's drawings is an elegant Christmas tree, which is installed in every house shortly before the arrival of a magical night. The smallest children draw this green beauty schematically, while the older children try to ensure that their Christmas tree is no different from a real fluffy forest spruce.

Also, many boys and girls love to draw big and small snowmen. On the face of this character, you can depict a funny smile, small eyes and a nose in the form of a carrot, and on the head - a bucket or any other object that imitates a headdress.

In some cases, the theme of a child's drawing is simply a snow pattern, which is easiest to depict using watercolor or gouache. Often such pictures are drawn on glass or mirrors.

Usually, children's drawings on a New Year's theme, made with paints or a pencil, are made in the form of greeting cards, which in the future the child can give to his friends, relatives or teachers. In this case, the drawing itself can be drawn directly on a sheet of cardboard, or you can glue the finished picture to the template. In addition, to create a full-fledged postcard, you will have to add congratulation text, which can be printed on a computer or handwritten.

In any drawing, you can depict not only popular New Year's characters, but also the plot situation in which they participate. For example, a child can draw other children dancing around a smart Christmas tree, parents presenting a gift to their son or daughter, and so on.
