While drawing squirrels, children often want the animal to hold an acorn in its paws. But the fruit is crooked and shapeless.The child holds a pencil in his or her hands unsteadily and it’s difficult for him or her to draw small items.
Try to draw a big acorn first. Show your child that it’s easy to do.
Auxiliary figures
Draw an oval.
Draw another one at the top.
Form the acorn's "hat"
Erase the unnecessary lines, clearly dividing the fruit into a “nut” and a “hat”.
Erase the unnecessary lines

"Hat's" contours

The “hat” is covered with a fine mesh.
