Six steps, one pencil, about ten minutes. Watch the video, follow along on paper, then bring your candy cane to life.
Watch it first
Draw it step by step
New lines are purple. Lines you already drew turn light.
One long line up from the bottom, then curve it right over the top like the handle of an umbrella.
Draw the same shape again just inside the first one, keeping the gap the same all the way round.
One short line across the bottom and one across the tip of the hook. Now it is a solid cane.
Four slanted lines all the way up the straight bit. Start each one on the left edge and finish on the right.
Four more stripes around the bend, leaning the same way as the ones below.
A bow near the bottom with a loop each side, and a round knot in the middle. Now this candy cane is yours.
Now draw a candy cane that someone has already had a bite of.
Practice on paper
Faint lines to trace, all six mini steps, and an empty box to draw your own. One page, works in black and white.
The magic part
Finished drawing? In a Kubrio project, your kid turns this paper candy cane into a real animated film — with Kubrio's AI thinking partners at their side. The little bow swing below is a wink; the real clips go much further.
The Animation Studio
Your kid draws a character on paper, tells the story, and watches it star in a real animated film.
