How to Draw a Pumpkin: Step-by-Step for Kids

A pumpkin is a rounded shape with curved lines running from top to bottom. Add a face and it becomes a jack-o-lantern for Halloween.

What You'll Need

  • Pencil (HB or 2B)
  • Eraser
  • White drawing paper
  • Black marker for the outline
  • Orange and green pencils
  • Coloured pencils or crayons

Step-by-Step: Drawing a Pumpkin

Step 1: Draw the shape

Draw a wide oval that is a little flat on the top and bottom. Pumpkins are wider than they are tall.

Step 2: Add the middle groove

Draw a curved line down the centre from the top to the bottom. Bend it like a smile turned on its side.

Step 3: Add side grooves

Draw one more curved line on each side of the centre line, following the outline. They should look like the lines on a globe.

Step 4: Draw the stem

On top, in the middle, draw a short, thick, slightly curved rectangle for the stem.

Step 5: Curl a vine

Beside the stem, draw a thin curly line that spirals like a spring. Add one small leaf.

Step 6: Carve the face

Draw two triangles for the eyes, a small triangle for the nose and a wide zigzag mouth. Keep the shapes chunky so they read from far away.

Step 7: Shade the bottom

Draw a few short curved lines along the bottom edge of the pumpkin to show it is round.

Step 8: Outline and erase

Trace with a marker, erase the pencil, and add a small shadow oval on the ground.

Colouring Your Pumpkin

Use bright orange for the pumpkin and a slightly darker orange in each groove. The stem is green or brown. For a glowing jack-o-lantern, colour the eyes and mouth yellow and put a dark background around it.

Tips for Drawing a Pumpkin

  • Make the grooves follow the outline of the pumpkin, not straight lines. That is what makes it look round.
  • Give the two eyes different sizes for a spookier or sillier face.
