Full description

Zoetropes were an early form of animation, and are cool to make and watch. You spin a cylinder around, looking through tiny slits, and you can see animation happening right before your eyes as a sequence of images flash by creating movement.

This is a kit to help you make your own zoetrope. It contains all the materials you will need and simple, straight-forward instructions, plus a ready-made sequence (which might be a different animal from the one pictured). Once you get a bit clever, there's a blank template to make your own sequence, which you can draw on or use the collage bits included. All of this is packaged neatly together in an A4-sized sealed cellophane bag - you just need a bit of glue and some scissors, and possibly some adult help if you're a littl'un.
