Use portrait orientation and the same paper size in your printer settings. The PDF includes a white margin so the drawing stays inside the sheet.
With an adult
An adult can name the person dad. Say dog, dad and dig together. Find the INITIAL d; dad also ends with d.
Start near the top right of the bowl. Curve around, travel up the tall stem on the right and come down to the line.
Whole-word copying is optional. Model one movement and stop whenever a break would help.
