It’s an animal (also called polyps)! There are only 1% of coral reefs in all the world’s oceans yet they host and house hundreds of millions, billions of organisms, and marine life. There is so much biodiversity it rivals the Amazon rainforest. The great coral reef is so intricate that over 2 million people visit the great barrier reefs a year to see this incredible biodiversity. There are over 2,500 coral reefs and we’ll take a representative cartoon-style snippet of that diversity. Let’s get started and draw out these corals!

🖍️ Tools For Success
- Paper (Our Free How To Draw Template PDF)
- Pencil
- Polymer Eraser
- Outline Markers
- Coloring Tools (I recommend Crayola’s 140 Piece Coloring Case)
🎨 Parents: The only tools you need to use these how-to-draw tutorials are: an eraser, a pencil, and a piece of paper. But – if you have them around – a sketching pencil makes for fainter and softer lines that help kids build fine motor accuracy. I also recommend going over the sketch pencil with a black outline marker when you’re done for a neater finish. Lastly, erase the pencil marks before adding color.
