About this picture
An acoustic guitar standing on its end, with a long neck and a curvy body.
Dot 1 is at the top of the headstock; the line goes down the thin neck, out around a smaller upper bump and a bigger lower bump, and back up the other side.
Talk about it: Guitars make sound when you pluck the strings. Can you name another instrument that you play with your fingers?
- Dots: 15, joined by 14 numbered lines. That is tied for the 7th most dots of the 33 pictures, along with Christmas tree and crescent moon.
- Path: dot 1 is at the top of the picture and the numbers go clockwise around the guitar. The page stops at dot 15, so draw one more line from 15 back to 1 to close the outline. It is about as long as an average line.
- Shape: the finished outline is about 1.5 times as tall as it is wide.
- Mirror line: fold the picture down the middle and the two halves match. Three dots (3, 9 and 15) sit on the fold, and the other dots make six mirror pairs, like 1 and 2.
- Line lengths: the longest numbered line is from 6 to 7 and the shortest is from 1 to 2. The long one is about 2.0 times as long.
- Straight lines: of the 15 lines, one goes straight across and none goes straight up and down; the other 14 slant. A ruler helps with the straight ones.
- Corners: there are no sharp turns or square corners; every turn is gentle, so the outline looks rounded.
- Next picture: for fewer dots, try the heart (14 dots); for more dots, try the musical note (16 dots).
