Step-by-step: how to draw a fish

  1. 1

    Draw an oval body

    Make a sideways oval in the middle of the page. This is the fish's body.

  2. 2

    Add a triangle tail

    On the right side, draw a triangle that points outward — that's the tail.

  3. 3

    Draw fins

    Add a small curved fin on top and one on the bottom of the body.

  4. 4

    Eye and mouth

    Add a big round eye near the front and a tiny curved mouth shaped like a smile.

  5. 5

    Scales & color

    Draw little U-shapes across the body for scales. Color with blues, oranges, and a pop of pink.

Pro tips for parents & kids

  • Add bubbles around the fish to show it's underwater.
  • Use foil stickers to make sparkly scales.
  • Draw a whole school of fish swimming together!
