It is therefore no surprise that toy animation – also known as toymation – is the ideal medium for introducing children to the wonders of stop motion. Used as a means to role play, communicate and understand the world, the act of creating stories with toys comes naturally as a key developmental activity. There are no limitations to what you can bring to life with stop motion, but there are some common techniques and materials which are tried, tested and a whole lot of fun to try!
