Draw it step by step

Six steps to a spider web

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

1

Start in a corner

Draw one long thread across the top and another straight down the side. Wobbly is fine — real threads sag a little.

2

Fan out four more threads

Every thread starts in the same corner and spreads out like a fan. Keep the gaps between them about the same size.

3

Hop across with two small rings

Between every pair of threads, draw a little curve that dips back toward the corner. Two rings near the corner come first.

4

Add two bigger rings

Do the same hop again, further out from the corner. Each curve dips the same way as the one before it.

5

Close the outside ring

One last ring near the ends of the threads, so the tips poke out past it. Then drop a straight silk line from one tip.

6

Hang a tiny spider

A small round body at the end of the line, then eight short legs, two dot eyes, and a smile. Now this web is yours.

Go further

Now draw a web with a dewdrop on every ring.

Practice on paper

The magic part

Animate your drawing with AI

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