“The author really does a great job demonstrating how easy (and rewarding!) it can be to draw seemingly ordinary things you (and your little ones!) may feel too intimidated to try drawing without the step-by-step guide! Putting already-known shapes together and making something new and original is a fantastic way to learn! And recognizing that you can add your own twists and personality to your drawings makes all the difference. I think it’s a fun, original approach to building confidence for a lifelong hobby. I have the ebook copy, and can only imagine how great a physical copy would be!”

– Daenarah [Amazon Review]

“There are several of these fun books by this author. My kids and I have had a lot of fun with these. It’s a great activity to do as a family and see how they all turn out. Almost like a sip and paint but more of a juice box and draw.”

Allison B. [Amazon Review]

My kids can’t wait to start drawing these monsters in their illustrations! The many different moods of the monsters appeal to their different personalities. We love the many options, styles, and opportunities to expand upon the characters. Recommended for all ages!

– Kasey [Amazon Review]

“Kevin has put out many books on drawing and animation, and has such a great feel for HOW to explain the process. His art is so expressive and kid-friendly, but his real strength is in his ability to really explain and show how it’s done, making it accessible to kids and adults. I’m a firm believer that not everyone who “can do” can teach, but Kevin does both beautifully! Pick this up and watch kids have a blast making robots of all sorts, while learning great fundamental art skills at the same time!”

Tom R. [Amazon Review]

“My 5yo LOVES this book! The drawings are cute and the instructions are easy to follow along with. She gets a kick out of drawing muffin monsters and ketchup monsters and it actually keeps her pretty focused for long periods of time.”

– Monica [Amazon Review]

The Benefits of Grid Drawing Books for Kids

Draw by Grid books offer more than just a fun pastime—they provide numerous educational and developmental benefits that can boost a child’s artistic ability, cognitive skills, and confidence. Here are just a few reasons why grid drawing books like Draw by Grid: Weird Creatures are a fantastic tool for young learners:

1. Builds Stronger Drawing Skills

Grid drawing helps kids learn proportion, symmetry, and spatial awareness. By breaking down an image into smaller sections, they can focus on details without feeling overwhelmed, leading to more accurate and confident drawings.

2. Develops Hand-Eye Coordination and Fine Motor Skills

As kids copy lines and shapes from one section of the grid to another, they practice precise movements that strengthen their fine motor skills. This helps with handwriting, craft activities, and overall dexterity.

3. Encourages Patience and Focus

Completing a grid drawing requires kids to pay close attention to detail and take their time to ensure accuracy. This enhances concentration and problem-solving skills, both of which are valuable for academic success.

4. Boosts Creativity and Storytelling

The weird and wonderful creatures in this book inspire kids to create their own stories about the characters they draw. Who are these strange beings? Where do they come from? What adventures do they have? Encouraging storytelling alongside drawing helps develop a child’s imagination and communication skills.

5. A Screen-Free Activity for All Occasions

In today’s digital age, finding engaging screen-free activities can be a challenge. Grid drawing books provide a wonderful way to keep kids entertained without screens. They are perfect for:

  • Rainy day activities
  • Road trips and travel entertainment
  • Classroom and homeschooling projects
  • Family bonding time
  • Relaxing, independent creative fun

Let the Weirdness Begin!

If your child loves drawing, laughing, and getting creative with weird and wonderful characters, then Draw by Grid: Weird Creatures is the perfect book for them. Watch their artistic confidence grow as they transform blank pages into a gallery of strange and silly creatures.

“The author really does a great job demonstrating how easy (and rewarding!) it can be to draw seemingly ordinary things you (and your little ones!) may feel too intimidated to try drawing without the step-by-step guide! Putting already-known shapes together and making something new and original is a fantastic way to learn! And recognizing that you can add your own twists and personality to your drawings makes all the difference. I think it’s a fun, original approach to building confidence for a lifelong hobby. I have the ebook copy, and can only imagine how great a physical copy would be!”

– Daenarah [Amazon Review]

“There are several of these fun books by this author. My kids and I have had a lot of fun with these. It’s a great activity to do as a family and see how they all turn out. Almost like a sip and paint but more of a juice box and draw.”

Allison B. [Amazon Review]

My kids can’t wait to start drawing these monsters in their illustrations! The many different moods of the monsters appeal to their different personalities. We love the many options, styles, and opportunities to expand upon the characters. Recommended for all ages!

– Kasey [Amazon Review]

“Kevin has put out many books on drawing and animation, and has such a great feel for HOW to explain the process. His art is so expressive and kid-friendly, but his real strength is in his ability to really explain and show how it’s done, making it accessible to kids and adults. I’m a firm believer that not everyone who “can do” can teach, but Kevin does both beautifully! Pick this up and watch kids have a blast making robots of all sorts, while learning great fundamental art skills at the same time!”

Tom R. [Amazon Review]

“My 5yo LOVES this book! The drawings are cute and the instructions are easy to follow along with. She gets a kick out of drawing muffin monsters and ketchup monsters and it actually keeps her pretty focused for long periods of time.”

– Monica [Amazon Review]

“This is a fantastic book for kids who love art, cartoons, comic books, or just having fun! There are a lot of characters to choose from, and really easy step-by-step instructions to follow. You child will have a blast drawing these fun, silly characters! And just in time for Easter baskets!”

– Bestmomever [Amazon Review]

“This is a very good book for kids that want to learn to draw, my sons love it and Kevin does a great job of making drawing fun and not intimidating. Highly recommended for the long summer hours!”

David D. [Amazon Review]
