Draw a simple picture with a basic outline on a piece of paper lightly, with no intersecting lines.
Draw dots along the picture with the pen or marker. If you are doing letters or numbers telling which dot to go to next, place the dots further apart. If not, make the dots closer together.
Erase the pencil marks from your drawing.
Write your letters or numbers around your pictures, if you are choosing to do them.
Find a picture that you like and want to use as a dot to dot picture. Lay a piece of tracing paper on top.
Draw dots around the outline of the picture using your marker or pen. There is no need to draw the entire outline with pencil; simply place your dots.
Remove the tracing paper and label the dots with numbers or letters.
