Thaumatropes

Y4C have been looking at and made their own Thaumatropes. This early animation was a popular toy in the Victorian times. A disk or card with a picture on each side is attached to two pieces of string. When the strings are twirled quickly between the fingers the two pictures appear to combine into a single image.
