Animation Praxinoscope kit
The praxinoscope was invented in France in 1877. It was the precursor to modern film and beautifully demonstrates the working principles of animation. With this kit you can watch animations and also learn how to make your own. Bonus: comes with an LED light for nighttime viewing which creates "flashes" just like early movies!
