Snow outside the window is a great reason to pick up a brush and depict all the beauty of winter. Show your kids several ways to draw snowdrifts, “crystal” trees, “horned” snowflakes, fluffy animals, and let winter “drawing games” bring the joy of creativity and decorate your home.
Music to which masterpieces are created
So, let's turn on some pleasant background music and... draw winter with the children!
Drawing with “snow”
mtdata.ru
You can imitate snow in a drawing in different ways.
Option No. 1. Draw with PVA glue and semolina. Squeeze out the required amount of glue directly from the tube; if necessary, you can spread it with a brush (if you plan to cover large surfaces). Sprinkle the image with semolina. After drying, shake off excess cereal.

Option number 2. Paint with salt and flour. Mix 1/2 cup of water with 1/2 cup of salt and the same amount of flour. Mix the “snow” well and draw winter!
www.bebinka.ru
Option number 3. Draw with toothpaste. Toothpaste perfectly serves as “snow” in the drawings. It can be tinted with watercolor or gouache if you need to get a color image.
Drawings with white paste on dark paper look beautiful. And they SMELL delicious!
Toothpaste has perhaps gained the most popularity due to the fact that it is easily washed off, so you can draw with the paste on glass. Feel free to pick up the tubes and go decorate mirrors, windows and other glass surfaces in your home!

Option number 4. Draw with shaving foam. If you mix PVA glue with shaving foam (in equal proportions), you will get an excellent “snowy” paint.

Option #5. Painting with salt. If you pour salt onto a pattern outlined with PVA glue, you will get a sparkling snowball.
Drawing on crumpled paper
An unusual effect can be achieved if you draw on previously crumpled paper. The paint will remain in the creases and form something like crackle.
Drawing with stencils
img4.searchmasterclass.net
Stencils make the drawing process easier for those who “don’t know how” (as they think). If you use several stencils at the same time, you can get an unexpected effect.
mtdata.ru
By leaving the part of the image covered with the stencil unpainted, you can pay more attention to the background: sprinkle salt on the still wet surface, apply strokes in different directions with a hard brush, etc. Experiment!
www.pics.ru
Several sequentially applied stencils and sprays. It is convenient to use an old toothbrush or a stiff bristle brush for these purposes.
www.liveinternet.ru
A knitted snowflake will help you create real lace on paper. Any thick paint will do: gouache, acrylic. You can use a spray can (spray from a short distance strictly vertically).
Drawing with wax
Drawings drawn with wax look unusual. Using a regular (not colored) candle, we draw a winter landscape, and then cover the sheet with dark paint. The image “appears” right before your eyes!
Who are you? Seal?
masterpodelok.com
The effect of fluffy wool can be created by a simple technique: dip a flat brush in thick paint (gouache) and apply strokes with a “poke”. Drawings with white paint always look better against a dark, contrasting background. All shades of blue are great for winter motifs.
How to draw winter trees
www.o-detstve.ru
The crowns of these trees are made using a plastic bag. Dip it in paint and blot it in the right places - that’s the whole secret of “snow caps” for trees.
cs311120.vk.me
Finger painting is suitable for kids. Dip your index finger into thick gouache and generously sprinkle snow on the branches!
masterpodelok.com
Unusually beautiful snow-covered trees are obtained using cabbage leaves. Cover a leaf of Chinese cabbage with white gouache - and voila! This painting looks especially impressive against a colored background.
www.mtdesign.ru
No cabbage - no problem. Any leaves with pronounced veins will do. You can even sacrifice your favorite ficus. The only BUT, remember that the juice of many plants is poisonous! Make sure your child doesn’t taste his new “brush.”
ua.teddyclub.org
The trunk is a handprint. And everything else is a matter of minutes.
www.maam.ru
orangefrog.ru
A favorite technique for many is blowing paint through a tube. We create “snowiness” using the little artist’s fingerprints.
www.blogimam.com
Not everyone will guess how this charming birch grove is drawn. The resourceful artist used masking tape! Cut strips of the required width and glue them onto a white sheet. Paint over the background and remove the paint. Draw the characteristic “dashes” so that the birch trees become recognizable. The moon is made in the same way. Thick paper is suitable for these purposes; the tape should not be too sticky so as not to damage the top layer of the design.
Drawing with bubble wrap
mtdata.ru
Apply white paint to the bubble wrap and apply it to the finished drawing. It's snowing!
mtdata.ru
The same technique can be used in applications.
The snowman has melted. It's a pity…
mtdata.ru
This idea is suitable for both the youngest artists and those who want to give a gift “with humor.” Cut out “spare parts” for the snowman from colored paper in advance: nose, eyes, hat, twig arms, etc. Draw a melted puddle, wait for the paint to dry and glue what’s left of the poor fellow snowman. Such a drawing can be an excellent gift to loved ones on behalf of the baby. Even more ideas in our article.
Drawing with palms
www.kokokokids.ru
An easy way to create a surprisingly touching New Year's card is to tell a story about funny snowmen. You can create a whole family if, based on a palm print, you add carrot noses, coal eyes, bright scarves, buttons, twig hands, and hats to your fingers.
What's there outside the window?
ic.pics.livejournal.com
What does a window look like from the street side? Unusual! Invite your child to look at the window through the eyes of Santa Claus or another character who may find himself outside in the most severe cold.
Dear readers! Surely you have your own “winter” drawing techniques. Tell us about them in the comments.
Winter is an amazing time of year. Everything around is covered with a blanket of snow. In the courtyards, children play snowballs, make snowmen and other snow sculptures. Print or download the picture you like or the entire archive (see bottom of the page).
Coloring book: House in the snow.
The picture shows a house and a spruce tree. A crust of snow formed on the roof of the house.
Print out the coloring page and give it to your child. Let the child color and transform a monochromatic picture into a bright one.
In winter, many men go fishing. They dress warmly and take vodka with them to keep warm.
In winter, children go outside to slide down the slide and play snowballs with friends.
There is a forester's hut in the forest. This is what it looks like in winter:
Snegurochka is the daughter of Father Frost, who loves animals and birds, winter, and is ready to come to the aid of everyone in need.
The bears decided to learn how to skate, they bought skates in the store and went out on the ice to have fun and skate.
This winter the fox went hunting. She is hunting for a bunny. But the hare is not so easy to catch.
The picture shows children playing in the snow. Print out the coloring page.
The picture shows a deer communicating with a hare. And the bunny, on top of that, also cleans the snow.
In the city in winter, people do a lot of things: someone clears the car of snow, someone builds a snowman, someone clears snow from snow-covered roads, someone plays snowballs. All this is shown in one picture.
The animals made a snowman and became friends with him. Now they are in a hurry to celebrate the New Year all together.
Color the coloring book and look at the result. This coloring book is suitable for children from 3 to 7 years old.
Have you ever done the same? Here is the artist who painted this picture, catching snow with his mouth.
Bird hunting.

Winter is one of the most inspiring times of the year.
Does your child love to draw, but has unfortunately run out of ideas? No problem.
We offer all kinds of winter drawings for children, and share the best techniques for turning them into reality.
This creative process captivates not only children, but also adults and will forever remain in their memory as a pleasant memory!
Various options for expressing talents
Winter themes are a field for flights of fancy. You can draw a house in the snow, various fantasies about this (snowman, snow queen, Santa Claus), children's games, snowdrifts, animals associated with this season, landscapes (day and night), a river or lake with ice on the surface.
There are many materials for this task: pencils, paints, felt-tip pens, gel pens, cotton wool, glue, glitter.
House in the snow
We present variations of children's drawings on the theme “Winter” with colored pencils and paints. One of them:
To begin, draw three large snowdrifts, one after the other. Draw Christmas trees on them. To do this, draw one stick with a brown pencil. Branches will extend from it. Draw needles on them in green. Draw snow with a white pencil. The house will be hidden behind the snowdrifts. Draw a square and a triangle on top of it. This is a wall with a roof. Place a small square on the wall and a rectangle next to it: a window with a door. Sprinkle the roof with white or blue snow. Ready.
It is better to do the drawing with shading rather than painting over all the empty spaces.
Painting winter with colors:
Here is the first snow and a house in winter. But painting with paints is a difficult task. To begin, make markings with a simple pencil (take the work plan from the first option). Then simply paint with gouache. Blue color indicates snow flakes.
Winter landscape
Winter-winter:
Divide a sheet of paper in half. Place two Christmas trees on the top line, followed by light green birch trees. Distribute as many trees as you think necessary on the sides. There should be snowdrifts in the center. To do this, leave a couple of lines of purple-pink color, shade the blue somewhere.
Winter tree:
We'll have to divide the horizon again. Only now on one third and two thirds of the sheet. In the upper right corner we draw a sun. There are Christmas trees on the horizon line. We will make them blurry, do not draw the outline and details. Using a thin brush, draw two semicircles on the lower part. These are snowdrifts. Using the same thin brush, we draw two birch trees without foliage onto them.
The desired fairy tale
When we hear the phrase “winter fairy tale,” most people think about a snowman, a Snow Maiden, and talking animals.
Therefore, we suggest in the background, and in the foreground, a smiling snowman and his mouse girlfriend:
To do this, draw three circles. The bottom one is the largest, the middle one is smaller, and the head is the smallest. She is wearing a red cap and a multi-colored scarf around her neck. There are two twig handles on the side, with warm mittens on them. New Year's gift in hand.
Fairytale winter house:
Nothing new. We combine elements from earlier works: there is a house, Christmas trees, and a snowman. This option is also suitable for children in grades 2 and 3.
Fun
The kids' favorite pastime is, of course, ice skating. Pictures on the theme “Winter fun”:
We draw the upper part of the man the way you are always used to doing it. Spread your legs a little wider than usual. In the second boy, you can depict how he pushes off the ice. The ice should be soft blue, otherwise color as desired.
Mischievous guys love hockey:
We divide the horizon into two parts. The top one is for the sky, trees and gates, the bottom one is for fun activities. How to make a gate: in a gray square, the strokes go diagonally, first from the bottom left to the top right, then from the bottom right to the top left. Place one child on a slide and let the other watch the beautiful picture. Give two children sticks in their hands and throw a black oval puck between them.
We remind you that it is difficult for children to work with paints because they blur on the sheet. The base should be made with a pencil, and blurry spots should be attached to it, symbolizing hair, clothes, and equipment.
Fantasies
Children fantasize and dream most often about gifts, the New Year and Santa Claus. We invite you to draw winter fantasies using sketches:
First, draw an oval, with a smaller oval in its center. We divide the large figure into two parts. We draw a semi-oval on top (and a semicircle on top), and a semicircle on the bottom. We got a hat without a pompom. Hurry up and finish drawing it. The very first oval will contain eyes, furry eyebrows, a nose and a mouth. From the mouth, draw another half circle. Starting from the hat, erase the boundaries, drawing out the beard in detail. Let's paint it over.
Another option:
Draw a circle and a smile in its center. This is the nose of Santa Claus. A luxurious mustache should extend from the nose. Then draw frills on the cap and a full beard in waves. Draw the cap and body, eyes, eyebrows, gifts behind the back. All that remains is to use the paint. Forward! A 4th grade student can easily handle this.
We depict nature from the earth to the sky
You can draw winter nature in different ways.
Animals
Who else, if not a bunny, stays awake all winter? What is not a symbol of this time of year:
The steps are extremely simple: draw an oval, not far from it there is a slightly elongated circle. Add the contours of the tail and paws. We connect the head with the body, attach long ears to the head. Add touches to create a wool effect.
Drawing animals with paints is not as difficult as it seems. Penguins live in the ice all year round. They deserve to be in your winter drawing:
How to draw animals: in the upper half we paint the excellent beautiful northern lights. Most of the leaf is occupied by snowdrifts and ice floes. Three little penguins walk happily on them. We make a black oval, slightly tapering at the very beginning. Next to him on the sides are flippers. Dip the brush into orange paint and carefully apply it downwards. These are webbed feet. We paint the eyes and abdomen white.
Forest
Forest - trees and animals collected in one place. How to depict a winter forest in the picture:
How to draw a winter picture with rowan: draw a trunk of medium thickness, short branches extend from it. At their ends we place small red circles in two rows. The first row is longer. Next to the rowan we draw a red semicircle, with two sticks extending from it. There are three more from these sticks: two diagonally, one in the center. Add a black head, beak, wings. Place a couple of Christmas trees and other animals of your choice in the picture. Don't forget to use white and blue pencils to create a snow effect.
Another variant:
First you need to draw the fir trees. Dip the brush into green paint, then press it onto the sheet evenly on both sides. The result is symmetrical needles. We use brown paint to mark the base of the trunk. The rest of it was covered by branches. After that, paint the bottom and top white, leaving space for the moon. We wait for the white paint to dry, then apply pink next to the yellow circle and blue around the edges.
Night
Fairytale night forest:
Even if you work in a minimalist style, there is a chance to achieve the desired recognition. Print the tree in green as in the step above. On top of this layer, apply almost the same, but white, leaving space for the previous one. It turns out to be a Christmas tree that is covered with snow. Add blue paint to the sky and paint stars and snowflakes on it with a thin brush.
River
Drawn picture with a river:
This drawing is also done using shading. Christmas trees are made with blue strokes obliquely and tilted to the right. The sky is in violet-blue tones. Let's add yellow-purple clouds. The river is blue-yellow with a horizontal streak.
Making crafts: pleasant gatherings
Winter illustration:
For such a simple craft, we will need a sheet of cardboard, glue, colored and plain paper, and gouache. Cut out a branch from brown paper. We paint snow on it with white gouache. Dip your palm into red paint and press it horizontally to the sheet. All that remains is to add the eyes, beak and legs. Cut out small snowflakes and glue them.
Another simple craft:
Available materials: cardboard, colored paper, cotton wool, cotton pads. Glue the disks on top of each other to make a snowman. We cut out all the necessary details for its decoration from paper. Glue brown tree trunks and a broom onto the leaf. Then we deal only with cotton wool. Tear off small pieces and fluff them up. These will be snowdrifts. Then roll into large balls - this is the crown of the trees. Smaller balls - Christmas tree. The smallest lumps are falling snow.
Works worthy of the competition
We have selected examples of drawings about winter with which your child will be able to win the competition. The implementation techniques were presented above.
For those over ten
Ten-year-old children are old enough to perform more complex techniques for drawing winter. They are already able to work out small details, handle paints so as not to go over the edges.

Interesting New Year's adventures in pictures for children
New Year is coming! All the forest animals laugh and sing songs.
And Grandfather Frost stands there, almost crying.
Why are you sad, Grandfather? - asks the bear cub.
How not to be sad! The little hare and the fox are missing!
The animals searched the whole house, but they never found the kids.
- What if they got lost in the forest? - says the bunny's mother.
- Let’s call the Snow Maiden for help! “She knows every corner of the forest,” Grandfather suggested.
As soon as the Snow Maiden found out, she immediately hurried into the forest on skis. And the squirrel and the little bear went with her. We need to help our friends out quickly!
Find and color ten Christmas trees so that your friends don’t get lost in the forest!
Draw the thorny bushes on which the little fox caught his tail.
Finally the little fox and bunny have been found! They said that they wanted to pick up delicious berries for everyone. Yes, they got caught in the thorny bushes.
“I,” says the bunny, “forced myself free.” But the little fox just couldn’t. That’s why I didn’t leave here anywhere: how can you leave a friend alone in the forest!
The Snow Maiden helped the fox cub get out of the thorns. She treated all the animals to ice cream. And she gave the bunny a carrot because she didn’t leave her friend in trouble.
They returned home. And they began to prepare for the holiday together - decorate everything with balls and beads.
Help your friends decorate the house. Come up with patterns for Christmas tree decorations, candies and gift boxes!

When drawing pictures on a winter theme, we will use all kinds of additional materials, and not just a brush and paints. You may not even suspect that you can draw winter using plastic film or salt, bubble wrap or shaving foam.
1. Winter drawings. "Volume snow paint"
If you mix equal amounts of PVA glue and shaving foam, you will get wonderful airy snow paint. She can draw snowflakes, snowmen, polar bears or winter landscapes. For beauty, you can add glitter to the paint. When drawing with such paint, it is better to first outline the contours of the drawing with a simple pencil, and then paint it with paint.

2. Winter drawings of children. Using electrical tape in children's creativity
3. Winter drawings. Drawings on the theme of winter
If there is snow outside the window, you can depict it using a cotton swab.
Or use a brush to put snow on each branch.
11. Winter drawings. Drawings on the theme of winter
An interesting idea on the topic of children's winter drawings was proposed by the author of the Homeschool Creations blog. She used putty to paint snow on the transparent film. Now it can be applied to any winter pattern or appliqué, simulating falling snow. They put the film on the picture - it started snowing, they removed the film - the snow stopped.
12. Winter drawings. "New Year's lights"
We would like to tell you about one interesting unconventional drawing technique. To draw a New Year's garland like in the photo, you will need a sheet of thick paper of a dark color (blue, purple or black). You will also need regular chalk (the kind you use to draw on asphalt or a blackboard) and a light bulb stencil cut out of cardboard.
On a piece of paper, use a thin felt-tip pen to draw wires and light bulb sockets. Now apply the light bulb stencil to each socket in turn and outline it boldly with chalk. Then, without removing the stencil, smear the chalk on the paper using a piece of cotton wool or directly with your finger to create rays of light. You can replace chalk with colored pencil graphite chips.
It is not necessary to use a stencil. You can simply paint over the light bulbs with chalk, and then gently rub the chalk in different directions to make rays.
Using this technique, you can also draw a winter city, for example, or the northern lights.
13. Drawings of a winter fairy tale. Winter forest drawings
On the Maam.ru website already mentioned above, you will find an interesting master class on drawing winter landscapes using templates. You will only need one base color - blue, a coarse bristle brush and a white drawing sheet. When cutting out templates, use the cutting method from paper folded in half. Look at what a magnificent drawing of a winter forest the author of the painting created. A real winter fairy tale!
14. Winter drawings. Drawings on the theme of winter
You are probably very eager to find out how the wonderful “marble” Christmas tree in the photo below was painted? We'll tell you everything in order...To draw such an original drawing on the theme of winter you will need:
Shaving cream (foam)
- watercolor paints or food coloring in green shades
- flat plate for mixing shaving foam and paints
- paper
- scraper
1. Apply shaving foam to a plate in an even, thick layer.
2. Mix different shades of green paint or food coloring with a little water to make a rich solution.
3. Using a brush or pipette, drip paint onto the surface of the foam in a random order.
4. Now, using the same brush or stick, beautifully smear the paint over the surface so that it forms fancy zigzags, wavy lines, etc. This is the most creative stage of the whole work, which will bring pleasure to children.
5. Now take a sheet of paper and carefully apply it to the surface of the resulting patterned foam.
6. Place the sheet on the table. All you have to do is scrape off all the foam from the sheet of paper. For these purposes, you can use a piece of cardboard.
Simply amazing! Underneath the shaving foam you'll find stunning marble patterns. The paint has time to quickly absorb into the paper; you just need to let it dry for a few hours.
15. How to draw winter. How to paint winter with paints
Concluding our review article on winter drawings for children, we want to tell you about another interesting way how you can paint winter with paints with your child. To work, you will need any small balls and a plastic cup (or any other cylindrical object with a lid).
Place a piece of colored paper inside the glass. Dip the balls in white paint. Now put them in a glass, close the lid on top and shake well. As a result, you will end up with colored paper with white streaks. Similarly, make colored paper with white streaks of other colors. From these blanks, cut out the details of the applique on a winter theme.
