Help!?
What can we use if we don't have a black marker or a kid-safe drawing app?
If you don't have a black marker, trace with a dark ballpoint pen or a sharpened pencil, or switch to the kid-safe drawing app's bold brush and save the file before coloring.
My marker keeps smudging and the colors bleed—what should I do?
Let the marker ink dry fully (step 6), place a scrap paper under your hand while coloring to prevent smears, or use the app and its undo/save features so colors don't bleed.
How can I adapt this activity for younger or older kids?
For younger kids, pre-sketch the rounded bean shapes and let them pick crayons and stickers for accessories, and for older kids, have them design multiple crewmates with detailed accessories and a clever caption (steps 3–9).
How can we make the meme more creative or share-worthy?
Add a simple background or prop (step 11), turn the drawing into a two-panel comic with different captions, personalize hats and pets, and then share the finished meme on DIY.org as the last step instructs.
