HOW TO DRAW THE SOLAR SYSTEM! | Step by Step Easy Drawing for Kids | Learn Planet Names and Colors

[Music] it's me free reads hi friends it's me bri today let's draw the solar system together like this if you prefer a coloring page version there's a link below for a printable solar system from my website for this project you'll need a piece of dark paper black works best you'll also need some white paper we're drawing the planets on this paper you'll need a pen marker or pencil whatever you like to draw with and colors i'm using my favorite beeswax crayons also linked in the description box if you'd like your own whatever you're using make sure you have the color white that's what will show up on your black background you'll also need scissors glue and an optional white paint you can splatter paint your background to make it look like the stars in outer space if you need to pause the video now to gather your supplies we're starting with the space background your black paper and your white crayon or pencil let's start in the corner we're going to make nine curved lines starting here and working our way out [Music] in this corner draw a curve almost like a rainbow shape pretend like you're going to draw a whole circle but we're really just drawing part of it this will be the sun just the edge of the sun and now draw your second curved line follow the curve of the first the distance between your lines should be about half of a finger length now make your third line this is number three out of nine keep going number four [Music] five six [Music] and just go right off the edge seven eight nine nine curved lines [Music] now that your lines are finished let's splatter paint i'm using just a folded up piece of paper you can use a plate or whatever you have i'm using just the smallest bit of white paint it's washable tempra paint i'm laying down an extra layer of cardboard because this might get messy with my white paint i'll dip my brush you can use whatever brush you have dip dip dip to get a splatter paint effect hold your brush like this and then rub the bristles and flick the paint flick flick it's going to look like millions of little stars in outer space far far away flick flick flick for larger drops get a lot of paint and shake the brush shake shake shake on top of the paper [Music] you'll see it creates a kind of galaxy effect you might try mixing other colors too now wash your hands and it's time to draw first i'm drawing the sun i'm trying to measure the corner of my paper i'm marking where i made my first curved line on my background i'm going to try to follow that shape as much as i can just for the sun curve now i'm going to make some sun rays they look a little bit like small flames with pointy tops [Music] for the rest of the planets it doesn't matter where you put them as long as they all fit you'll cut them out after let's start with the closest planet to the sun mercury draw a smallish circle and on mercury i'm going to put ovals these are craters [Music] next is venus a bit larger circle and on venus we're going to make wavy lines venus has a lot of gas clouds we're going to make waves across on one side long and short [Music] next is earth about the same size as venus little bigger and let's draw some land masses draw some shapes of continents they're kind of just like blobs now let's draw mars mars will be smaller than earth a circle with larger craters i'm making bumpy circle lines inside now the biggest planet in the solar system jupiter a big circle i'll draw some lines on the top the big spot and some more lines next is saturn start by drawing a long open oval from the edge here come around and close it up in this empty space we're going to draw a sphere or a circle [Music] around on saturn i'm going to draw some lines and one line that goes through the ring [Music] next is uranus start with a circle and draw some simple lines [Music] lastly is neptune another circle this time some lines and a spot [Music] nice drawing now you're ready to color i'll start with yellow and color the inside of the sun if i'm coloring too fast please pause the video and take as much time as you need now i'll use a yellow orange color for the sun rays next is mercury i'll start with a magenta color kind of pink and kind of red [Music] on top i'll put some red [Music] and on top of that i'll put some gray i like mixing colors to get something totally unique for each planet [Music] next is venus i'm taking this mustard color it's a dark yellow golden color and i'm coloring all of the gas clouds that i drew all the wavy lines then i'll go on top with yellow [Music] next is earth all the land i'll make green and the water ocean blue [Music] naturally next is mars the red planet gets a red crayon i'll color the craters a bit darker and i'll even add some brown to the craters [Music] too [Music] next is jupiter orange red for the big spot and i'll go over some of my lines with the same color [Music] next i'll add some yellow orange [Music] and yellow [Music] jupiter's kind of a mix of lots of warm colors red orange and yellow [Music] last i'll add some of that mustard golden yellow color [Music] now saturn i'll start with yellow for the circle part of the planet [Music] then gray for the lines and for the rings [Music] i'll add just a little bit of black too now uranus i'm going to use a teal color it's a little bit blue and a little bit green [Music] mostly teal with a tiny bit of sky blue added [Music] now i'll go over the lines with teal i push down harder to make a darker line last up is neptune this time i'm starting with sky [Music] blue [Music] then i'll use regular blue to color the spot and go over the lines [Music] great coloring now you're ready to cut them out if you don't have scissors made for kids be sure to ask a grown-up for help the sun can be a bit tricky but most of the others are just circles i like to cut each planet out first and then go around and around and around to cut the circles out [Music] for saturn it's not a perfect circle you can either cut out those pieces or a special trick just color them black it'll blend into your background finish cutting out the rest and now it's time to glue you've got your background make sure it's dry and start gluing with your sun this is the one that gets tucked in the [Music] corner [Music] now here's where those lines come in handy take your first planet mercury and put it somewhere on this first line these lines represent the planet's orbit around the sun repeat for the rest of the planets venus is second there's the second line find a spot and glue next is earth mars [Music] jupiter in the real outer space these planets are a lot farther away it's okay if they cross paths on our paper saturn uranus and neptune [Music] ta-da all finished thank you for drawing with me today
