At the top is Rat, because "Rat is in first place" (note the "1" above the topmost rat). Then the 12 animals of the zodiac are drawn in four rows of three: Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Rooster, Dog, Pig. Then Pig is repeated at the bottom because Pig is in last place (with a "12" next to the final pig). Each of the 12 animals has a check mark above it because Anja went through after she drew them to make sure each one was there.
Finally, Anja cut the drawing in the shape of a diamond, so it would have the same shape as the Chinese New Year scrolls in our house this year. Ours just have a rabbit on them, so Anja obviously decided to go one better.
