Immy and I recently had lots of fun with this simple drawing challenge – the challenge being to choose a subject and draw it with one continuous line, without taking your pencil or marker off the page. The game encourages children to think about the form of their drawing and to problem solve as they draw.

Not only great as an at home activity for kids, this challenge also works well in the classroom, and even makes a fun activity for family fun nights with a creative theme.
