This workshop is for home educated children aged 5+ and their families. Join us for some festive fun. Explore the world of Victorian-era visual toys.

We will:

• Play with some exciting and intriguing Victorian-style optical toys. These use motion to blend images into one or create the illusion of moving pictures.

• Have a go at making some of our own Victorian-style visual toys, inspired by Christmas traditions
