This popsicle starts as a rectangle with a rounded top, a shape that is simple to keep tidy. The wavy topping line teaches a lovely wobbly stroke without any pressure to be neat. Work through the panels together and let your artist pick the flavor.

Make it your own

Draw a bite missing from one corner, or fill the bar with two flavor layers and a beach scene behind it.
