Draw it step by step

Six steps to a brontosaurus

New lines are purple. Lines you already drew turn light.

1

Start with the body

Draw a big round body low on the page. Leave a gap at the top front corner for the neck.

2

A very long neck

Two long lines curve up from the gap and bend toward the tree. Put a small oval head on top.

3

Legs and a tail

Four thick legs like tree trunks, and a long tail that trails down to the ground.

4

Grow a tall tree

A bumpy cloud of leaves across the top corner, and a bendy trunk that spreads out at the ground.

5

Give it a face

One dot eye near the top of the head, and a happy smile under it.

6

Finishing touches

Little toenails on the front feet, and a leaf to munch. Now this brontosaurus is yours.

Go further

Now draw a brontosaurus that can't reach the tastiest leaf.

Practice on paper

The magic part

Animate your drawing with AI

Finished drawing? In a Kubrio project, your kid turns this paper brontosaurus into a real animated film — with Kubrio's AI thinking partners at their side. The little tail swish below is a wink; the real clips go much further.

Ingenious projects that inspire kids to make things — until they find the thing only they could make.
Ages 6–13.
