We are thrilled to announce that HUE Animation Toolbox has been awarded the coveted Recommended badge by the Good Play Guide. 

Experts at Fundamentally Children said:

“The HUE Animation Toolbox is a fun creative kit that inspires children to bring their imaginations to life through stop-motion animation. The set is packed with everything young filmmakers need to start animating right away including clay, wooden tools, a giant storyboard and a child-friendly quickstart guide. Children can follow step by step projects in the included book and there are downloadable templates and tutorial videos, or they can experiment freely with their own ideas.”

“Our testers were thrilled each time they produced a new video and couldn’t wait to share their creations. While younger children sometimes needed guidance at first, they quickly gained confidence and independence with practice. The set worked well for both solo play and group collaboration, as children took turns making individual films but also brainstormed ideas together.”

“Parents loved that it combines screen time with hands-on creativity, teaching children patience, storytelling and technical film making skills in an accessible way. Compact and easy to set up, it keeps children coming back for more and offers endless opportunities to get increasingly inventive. A really engaging introduction to the world of animation!”
