Perspective for Kids
Make roads and buildings look like they go far away.
Advanced1. Things get smaller
Objects far away look smaller. A big tree up close, a tiny tree far away.
2. A simple road
Draw two lines that get closer together as they go up the page. That's a road going into the distance!
3. Horizon line
A straight line across the page is the horizon — where the sky meets the ground.
4. One vanishing point
All lines that go away from you meet at one point on the horizon. That's the vanishing point.
🎨 Try this activity
Draw a road with trees on both sides that get smaller as they go back!
Tip: Perspective takes practice. Start with a simple road and one row of trees.
