A toy which enables a child to draw pictures by remote manipulation of a writing instrument, including a frame for supporting a sheet of paper, a marker holder for holding a writing instrument over the paper, and a pair of knobs which can be turned by a child to move the holder in each of two perpendicular directions over the paper. The marker holder is mounted for sliding in the "X" direction on a carriage and the carriage is mounted to move in the "Y" direction on the frame. When a "Y" knob is turned by a child, it rotates a pulley which moves a cord that is attached to the carriage to move it in the "Y" position. When an "X" knob is turned, it rotates a square shaft, and a pinion rotatably mounted on the carriage and coupled to the shaft then moves a rack on the marker holder to slide it in the "X" direction. A program in the form of a strip with rows of letters and numbers defining "X" and "Y" locations to which the holder can be moved, defines a picture that can be drawn by a child.
