Print

  1. Step 1: The ball

    Near the bottom on the left of your paper, draw a round ball as big as a plum.

  2. Step 2: Two big eyes

    On the ball draw 2 big egg eyes, one eye apart. Add a black dot in each with a shine.

  3. Step 3: Smile and cheeks

    Under the eyes draw a U smile from eye to eye. Add a small oval cheek below each eye.

  4. Step 4: The cup

    High on the right draw a wide flat oval rim. Under it draw a U bowl from end to end.

  5. Step 5: The handle

    Start under the cup. Draw 2 straight lines down, about 2 cups long, and join them at the bottom.

  6. Step 6: The knob

    At the bottom of the handle draw a fat oval knob, wider than the handle, as low as the ball.

  7. Step 7: The string

    Start on the handle just under the cup. Draw a gently drooping string down to the top of the ball.

  8. Step 8: Ground line

    Start near the left edge. Draw a straight ground line under the ball and knob. Stop near the right edge.

  9. Step 9: Sparkles

    Draw 3 fat 4-point sparkles in the empty spaces, not touching the toy.

  10. Step 10: Pink cheeks, yellow sparkles

    Colour the cheeks pink and the sparkles yellow.

  11. Step 11: Wood cup and handle

    Colour the rim tan. Colour the cup, the handle and the knob wood brown, around the rim.

  12. Step 12: Red ball

    Colour the ball red, around the eyes and cheeks. Leave the eyes white.
