Tilt & Draw an inclined earth, mark the axis and the equator & the Tropic of Cancer, and then draw a horizontal parallel line from left or right (depending on the direction in which you draw the axis) to point to the Tropic of Cancer.

Picture from the North Pole: A circle is the equator, a small circle is the tropic of cancer, and a small circle is the Arctic Circle. The sun shines from any side. In short, there is an extreme day in the Arctic Circle.

A picture from the South Pole: a circle is the equator, a small circle is the tropic of Capricorn, and a small circle is the Antarctic circle. The sun shines from any side. In short, there are polar nights in the Antarctic circle.
