Cute and Cool Pineapple Directed Drawing

One of the cute fruit characters from our directed drawing and writing pack is a cool pineapple! I'd love to share the steps with you here so your children can draw or paint today! 

You can print writing papers and printable steps from the pack over at TPT if you like. 

pineapple drawing and art project

Guide your children through the simple-shape steps and let them add
  • extra detail
  • background elements
  • color, pattern and lines

summer art project

Drawing and art projects often provide the perfect opportunity to support language development. Encourage lots of talking and describing
  • tell me about the colors you've chosen to use
  • describe the patterns you've drawn on your pineapple
  • what other things can you see with sharp zig zag lines - let's draw it
As well this week, you can include building a pineapple-shape into your math lessons with a quick warm up. 

Build a Pineapple Addition

  • use craft sticks and a dice
  • students roll and take the matching number of sticks, creating a pineapple as they go
  • encourage them to keep track of their numbers and discover different combinations that make 10
