Step 1 of 7. Draw two circles side by side for the eyes.
All 7 steps
Here is every step at once. The blue lines are the new ones; the dark lines are already on your paper. Draw lightly at first, so you can rub out a line you don’t like.

A tip for drawing a frog
The eyes sit on top of the head, not inside it: draw them first and hang the body from them. Make the smile really wide, almost from one side of the body to the other. A frog sitting down has its back legs folded up beside its body.
Change it up
Once your frog is down, make it yours:
- Put it on a lily pad.
- Draw a long tongue catching a fly.
- Give it a little crown: a frog prince.

How it was made: Peabody drew this frog in code, line by line, from its own shapes; it is not traced from anyone’s lesson or picture, and it is nobody’s character. Checked 6 November 2026.
