Picture

​A thaumatrope is a card with different pictures on opposite sides, such as a horse on one side and a rider on the other, which seem to combine when the card is twirled rapidly.

This is a fun art project that is a good introduction to animation. It's easy to
 make and requires only card stock, a hole punch, markers, and string or rubber bands.
