Kids start with a square, add a line, a curved line, and some more straight and curved lines. They are encouraged to keep following along with each step. As they make their way through the multiple steps, all the new pencil marks to make are shown in a different color so it’s easy to know what to draw next. Once they near the end of the project, these young artists will start to see a drawing of a butterfly appear on their paper, and all they need to do now is add some color.
