​You Can Take Free Disney Drawing Classes To End Isolation Boredom

With so much time on our hands, it's the perfect chance to practise our art skills.

If you are already climbing the walls in coronavirus isolation, it's time you started thinking outside the box.

Netflix and chilling and the new Disney + platform is a wonderful thing, but for some of us, there's only so many box sets and films we can watch in a day.

People are now exploring every avenue to keep themselves and their children entertained. From virtual ballet classes and Joe Wicks' P.E lessons to Bongo's Bingo and pub quizzes live streaming - there's already a variety of things to do.

But what about for the arty types? Well, if you head over to the Disney Parks YouTube channel, you can search for how-to drawing videos and we're so happy we discovered it.

There are a variety of videos explaining how to draw different Disney characters (

You can learn to draw so many Disney characters using the tutorials, from Mickey Mouse, Daisy Duck and Aladdin's Genie, to Frozen's Elsa and Tinkerbell.

After all, in animated films, on paper is where characters begin their lives, so you can feel like a real-life Disney animator.

We imagine art and craft-loving kids will adore these vids even more and hopefully it'll keep them busy for an hour if you're trying to get some work done from home - we can only but hope.

If that doesn't work, you can always try pinning a note on your door whilst in a virtual meeting with colleagues like this woman.

The tutorials are more suited to older children as it involves concentration, listening to the artist and copying what they say exactly to achieve a desired outcome, but they do break it down slowly and explain in detail how to achieve the look of the characters

Plus, kids can pause and play as suited so they can work at their own pace.

We're actually pretty excited to know this exists ourselves - we're 100 per cent creating a Mickey illustration for our homes.

If nothing else comes out of this home isolation, we might just discover a few artists among us.

Discover the tutorials here. Conveniently, it's also where you can watch a virtual Disney parade.
