Draw it step by step

Six steps to a dog

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

1

Start with the head

Draw a big circle. Wobbly is fine — wobbly circles make friendly dogs.

2

Add floppy ears

One soft ear on each side, like two leaves hanging down.

3

Give it a face

Two dot eyes, a round nose, and a big smile underneath.

4

Draw the body

A round belly under the head, wider at the bottom.

5

Legs and a tail

Four legs to stand on, and a tail caught mid-wag.

6

Finishing touches

A collar, a shiny tag, and one spot. Now this dog is yours.

Practice on paper

The magic part

Animate your drawing with AI

Finished drawing? In a Kubrio project, your kid turns this paper dog into a real animated film — with Kubrio's AI thinking partners at their side. The little wag 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.
