Draw it step by step

Six steps to a snake

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

1

One long curvy line

Start under the head and wiggle all the way down to the tail. Big curves, not little ones.

2

Another curvy line

The same wiggle again, a little way out from the first one. Let the two meet at the tail.

3

Add the head

A rounded head where the two lines start, with a blunt nose at the front.

4

Give it a face

One round eye, a little nose hole, and a smile along the bottom.

5

Flick out the tongue

A thin line out of the mouth that splits into two points at the end.

6

Finishing touches

Draw curvy bands all the way along the body, and a diamond on the head. Now this snake is yours.

Now draw a snake with a pattern you invent yourself.

Practice on paper

The magic part

Animate your drawing with AI

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