Snowy adventures begin as kids draw a mighty polar bear using simple lines and friendly animal shapes.

Step 1: Draw a thin curve at the top middle part of the page to start the furry head of a polar bear.

Step 2: Attach two rounded ears on both sides of the head.

Step 3: Draw the right side of the face with soft furry cheeks.

Step 4: Make sure to draw the left side of the bear’s face to finish the head-shaped round form.

Step 5: Create smaller curved lines within each ear.

Step 6: Draw an oval-shaped muzzle at the center of the face. Add the mouth and nose inside that oval shape.

Step 7: Draw a curved, slanting line that runs down to the right side of the head. This will begin the body.

Step 8: Create an oval shape in the lower part on the line you have just drawn to create the left foot.

Step 9: Draw a slanted, curved line on the left side also. This line will be drawn to begin on the opposite side of the body.

Step 10: Draw an oval at the bottom of the line you have just drawn to create the left foot. 

Step 11: Create a front leg towards the middle of the body using a long curving line.

Step 12: Place the opposite front leg next to it and make the front and back paws close to each other.

Step 13: Put the paw pad as well as tiny toe circles on the left foot.

Step 14: Place the pad on your paw and the small toe circles on the right foot.

Step 15: Draw tiny toe lines across both front paws.

Step 16: Draw an irregularly shaped frozen ground under the polar bear.

Step 17: Spread the icy ground form to the left.

Step 18: Make a wrinkled line within the ice to highlight the edges and thickness.

Step 19: Draw further sharp edges of ice on the right side and the bottom of the ice.

Step 20: Draw small vertical lines across the ice blocks to make the floating ice appear more solid.

Step 21: Draw two eyes on the face of the polar bear.

Step 22: Make small curves at the eyebrows, color the eyes, and then add highlights to the eyes.

Step 23: Complete the polar bear's drawing verifying the final shape and make the outlines neat.
