Six steps, one pencil, about twelve minutes. Watch the video, follow along on paper, then bring your dragon to life.
Watch it first
Draw it step by step
New lines are purple. Lines you already drew turn light.
Draw one big circle near the top. Leave room on the left — the snout goes there.
A round belly under the head, then one long tail sweeping out the back.
A short snout out the front, and two horns curving back over the head.
One big eye, a dot for the nostril, and a wide grin curving into the cheek.
A wing with two scoops along the bottom, and two little feet to sit on.
Zigzag spikes down the back and tail, a line on the belly, and a puff of fire. Now this dragon is yours.
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 the Sketchling project, your kid turns this paper dragon 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.
