• Use a light touch. Don't press too hard on the pencil, as this can make it difficult to erase mistakes.
• Start with basic shapes. Animals are made up of simple shapes, such as circles, ovals, and rectangles. Start by drawing these shapes, and then add details later.
• Pay attention to proportions. The proportions of an animal are important for creating a realistic drawing. For example, the head of a lion is larger than its body, and the legs of a tiger are longer than its body.
• Add details. Once you have the basic shapes in place, you can add details to your drawing. This can include things like fur, stripes, and eyes.
• Don't be afraid to make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes when drawing. The important thing is to learn from your mistakes and keep practicing.

Drawing animals is a fun and rewarding activity for kids of all ages. With a little practice, anyone can learn how to draw their favorite animals. So grab a pencil and paper, and give it a try!
