Tips for using it
- Draw the biggest shape first (the body, the house, the cup), then the medium parts, then the tiny details like eyes and buttons.
- Use a pencil and press lightly at first; trace over the lines you like with a marker at the end.
- Turn the paper, not your hand: curves are easier when you can pull the pencil toward you.
- Copy one picture together, side by side. Kids learn a lot from watching a grown-up make mistakes and keep going.
