Hey kids! Let's learn how to draw a steamboat. A steamboat is a big boat that moves on water. It's called a steamboat because it uses steam to make it go.

Steam is like the hot mist you see when you boil water. The steamboat has a big machine called an engine. The engine heats up water to make steam. The steam then pushes the boat through the water.

Steamboats have big wheels at the back or on the sides. These wheels are like the boat's feet. When the steam makes the wheels turn, the boat moves forward. It's like the boat is walking on water!

Steamboats can be very big. They can carry lots of people and things. In the past, steamboats were very important. They helped people travel from one place to another on rivers and lakes. They also carried heavy things like wood and coal.

Steamboats have tall chimneys. The chimneys are like the boat's noses. They let out the steam and smoke from the engine. Sometimes you can see the steam coming out of the chimneys like a cloud.

Steamboats are very interesting. They are like big machines that use steam to move on water. They helped people a lot in the past and are still fun to see today. A simple tutorial on how to draw a steamship, if you like it follow the instructions below!
