How to Draw Peppa Pig: A Free Fan Art Drawing Page
Fan art: Peppa Pig is not my character. Peppa Pig belongs to the creators and owners of the TV show Peppa Pig. This is my own unofficial fan art drawing, made for kids to practice with, and it isn’t affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by the show or its owners.
Peppa is one of the easiest characters for little kids to draw: a few circles, a big smile and a simple dress shape. So I drew my own version of the cheerful little pig and broke it into a free step-by-step drawing page you can print at home or in the classroom. There’s a draw-along video too, so kids can watch every line go down.
Like every page in my books, the drawing is split into six easy steps. A light gray outline of the finished drawing appears on every step to help kids plan the size and spacing, and the black lines show what to draw, adding a little more each step. It’s a great fit for kids ages 5 and up, and it takes about 10 to 15 minutes.

How to Draw Peppa Pig, Step by Step
Here’s what happens in each of the six steps. Draw lightly at first, and don’t worry about wobbly lines.
- Step 1: Start with the face: two round eyes with a dot in each one.
- Step 2: Draw the snout, a tall oval up at the top left.
- Step 3: Draw the big round head that curves from the snout all the way around. Then draw a long flat line low on the page for the bottom of the dress.
- Step 4: Add the line under the snout, a smile, the two sides of the dress and the legs.
- Step 5: Draw the two ears, turn the smile into an open mouth, and add the arms and the shoes.
- Step 6: Finish with the nostrils, the round cheek, the fingers and the curly tail. Color in the mouth.
Then try it again without looking at the steps. Kids are always surprised by how much they remember the second time around.
Tips for Coloring Your Drawing
Once the drawing is done, it’s time for color. Here are a few easy ideas:
- Pretty in pink: use a light pink for the face and body and a darker pink for the cheek and inside the ears.
- A bright dress: red is the classic choice, but any color works. Try stripes, spots or flowers.
- Make your own pig: change the colors, add a hat or a bow, and turn the drawing into a brand-new pig character of your own.
Turn Your Drawing into Something New
Copying a favorite character is great practice, and it’s even more fun when kids add their own ideas:
- Draw the family: draw a bigger pig and a smaller pig next to your drawing and make a whole pig family.
- Muddy puddles: draw a puddle under your pig’s feet with big splashes all around.
- Write the story: draw your pig, then write a few sentences about its best day ever.
Using This Page in the Classroom
Teachers are welcome to print copies of this page for the whole class, for classroom or home use. It makes an easy art center, an indoor recess activity or an early-finisher page.
- Draw it, then write about it: students draw the pig and write about a rainy-day adventure. My free draw-and-write sheets have a box for the drawing and lines for the story: primary lines (K–2) or regular lines (grades 2–5).

Common mistakes and quick fixes
- It doesn’t look like the character.
- Look at the colors and the one or two famous details (the hat, the ears, the mask) and get those right first.
- The proportions are off.
- Compare the head to the body on the example and match that size before adding details.
- It feels copied, not yours.
- After the lesson, draw the character doing something new: that’s the fun part of fan art.
- Pressing hard from the very first step.
- Use light, sketchy lines first. You can erase them easily and go over the lines you keep at the end.
