Draw it step by step

Six steps to a shooting star

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

1

Start with a big star

Draw a fat star with five round points. Tip it so one point aims up to the right.

2

Send it flying

From the notch at the back, draw one long curvy line down to the bottom corner.

3

Give it a face

Two dot eyes and a big smile in the middle of the star.

4

Two more trail lines

One line above and one below the first. Let them spread out as they go.

5

Shine and twinkles

A little shine line on the top point, and a few dots in the sky around it.

6

Finishing touches

Little plus-sign sparkles along the trail. Now this shooting star is yours.

Practice on paper

The magic part

Animate your drawing with AI

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

Your kid draws a character on paper, tells the story, and watches it star in a real animated film.
