A chick just out of its egg, the top of the shell still sitting on its head like a hat and both wings spread wide. It is all big round shapes, so a toddler can color it with a fat crayon, and it makes a lovely spring or new-baby card. Yellow chick, white egg, and the zigzag crack is the only fiddly line. This chick drawing grows up into the hen and chick.
