Draw national symbols of India.

If you want to start with some easy Independence Day drawing ideas, the symbols of India are a great place to start.

Simple drawing ideas could be the tricolour, which can then be coloured with crayons, paints or pens in the saffron, white and green with the navy blue of the Ashoka Chakra at the centre.

Sketch out a map of India, or its famous landmarks like the Taj Mahal or the Red Fort to foster a sense of national pride in your drawing.

Create sketches depicting freedom fighters, contemporary national icons or historical figures such as Mahatma Gandhi. Patriotic drawings like this make for powerful posters you can display to show your pride.

Make an eye-catching poster or collage as a group project and have each student add their own 15th August Independence Day drawing.

Create a flower arrangement of the tricolour from flowers or leaves, picking the right colour for each section of the flag.

Get colourful by creating a rangoli of the tricolour using coloured powders or sand and colourful leaves.

Pick a word or phrase and have students create an artwork around this. An uplifting text like Happy Independence Day or Bharat Mata Ki Jai can then be decorated with balloons, birds and use the same colours as the Indian flag.
