Follow the arrows to the picture
Counting, directions and a steady pencil, all at once — and the child cannot tell what they are drawing until it is nearly done, which is the part they like.


Count the squares, then draw.
A directional drawing worksheet generator, printable as a PDF. One picture a page: a row of steps — 3 →, 2 ↓, 1 ← — and a sheet of graph paper with a starting dot. Follow the steps in order, one line at a time, and a picture appears: a house, a robot, a ghost, a train. Every picture is a single line that ends where it started, so landing back on the dot means it is right. Easy has short pictures with straight steps; medium every straight-step picture; hard adds diagonal steps. The answer key shows the picture.
1 token a sheet, fewer in batches.
