See the grown-up comparison guides before you buy.
A lollipop is one of the kindest drawings for a beginner: it starts as a plain circle and stays a circle. The spiral inside is the only part that takes a steady hand, and it works beautifully even when it wobbles. Try it together and see how satisfying one round shape can be.
Make it your own
Tie a little bow where the stick meets the candy, draw a hand holding it, or fill a tall jar with lollipops of different sizes at a candy shop counter.
Draw a lollipop in four steps
Step 1
Draw one large circle near the top of your paper for the candy.
Step 2
Add a short, straight stick under the circle, like a narrow rectangle.
Step 3
Draw a ring just inside the circle, then a curling line inside that to start the swirl.
Step 4
Finish with two round eyes and highlights and a small smiling mouth in the middle of the swirl.
