🖍️ Tools For Success
- Paper (Our Free How To Draw Template PDF)
- Pencil
- Polymer Eraser
- Outline Markers
- Coloring Tools (I recommend Crayola’s 140 Piece Coloring Case)
🎨 Parents: The only tools you need to use these how-to-draw tutorials are: an eraser, a pencil, and a piece of paper. But – if you have them around – a sketching pencil makes for fainter and softer lines that help kids build fine motor accuracy. I also recommend going over the sketch pencil with a black outline marker when you’re done for a neater finish. Lastly, erase the pencil marks before adding color.

- Sugar candy is melted at a high temperature until it becomes a liquid. This liquid sugar is then spun in a machine using a central spinning force. This also cools down the liquid sugar that’s turning into threads. It begins to cool and use a stick to gather and collect the threads around a sturdy stick.
