A long adult snake rises on the left of this sheet and a short one rises on the right, with clear space between them so neither runs into the other. A single ground line crosses behind both and gives them something to stand on.
Drawing the pair at two sizes hands a child something to talk about while they work, and it is an easy way into big and small. Ladder bands climb both bodies from the tail to the jaw, so the same pattern appears twice at two different scales.
Check the line weight before choosing tools. This is the lightest sheet in the hub by a wide margin, carrying less ink than any other snake here on a stroke that sits toward the thin end of the set. Pencils and crayons suit it. A broad marker will crowd those narrow bands and swallow the gaps between them.
Most snakes hatch from eggs and are on their own straight away, which surprises children who expect a nest.
Give the two different colors to keep them apart, or match them and see whether anybody works out they are family.
