Croatian Zoetrope – Fun Optical Toy For Animation

Croatian Zoetrope is a cardboard cylinder (15×15 cm) with vertical slots on the upper side. Strips with drawings are inserted inside. When you rotate the zoetrope with your hand, it starts to spin around its axis, & the drawings become an animated loop. Magic of animation happens in your hands! You get 10 blank stripes for your own animations. It is very important to have enough light while watching the animation. Use your lamp/mobile phone/torch & point it to the inside of zoetrope. Bare in mind that the animation looks slightly different depending of speed of spinning. Croatian Zoetrope is suitable for all ages from 7 years onwards.
