Stop motion in the SEN classroom
New product announcement!
If your kids love storytelling and creative projects, they will be thrilled to receive HUE Animation Toolbox this Christmas.
This bumper box of movie magic is bursting with everything budding animators need to create stop motion movies from script to screen. They can bring their ideas to life by crafting characters to star in stories straight from their own imagination, or create new adventures for favourite stop motion characters like Wallace, Gromit, Shaun the Sheep or Pingu.
Created by professional animators, this unique kit is a celebration of stop motion. “I wish there was something like this when I first started,” says Ruth Barrett, Head of Animation at HUE. “It includes everything young storytellers need to spark imagination and start animating right away.”

Reviews and Awards
“My child has thoroughly enjoyed playing with this toy and being able to use his imagination. He got creative in so many ways, he was laughing and getting stuck in and concentrating really hard to make things work. It allows children to think outside the box, be hands on and use different equipment and ideas to bring the fun to life.” Nicole, Mum of Child judge Jacob, aged 8.
MadeForMums Toy Awards Team say: “If your child loves creating their own stories, this might just be the most perfect gift for them. It includes everything you need to make fantastic stop motion animation and truly bring their creativity to life.”
“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!” Experts at Fundamentally Children.
“Look, there’s so many backgrounds. Can we do the space one?” Boy, aged 7.
“Oh cool, there’s sound effects!” Boy, aged 9.
“There is so much scope for unbroken creativity with this cleverly assembled toolbox. No going off to find clay or stage sets!” Bonita Turner, Editor, Junior.
“Such a great idea. My son would love this tool box. Having your own clay and modelling tools makes this kit feel really special, blending exciting tech with hands-on creativity.” Eleonore Crompton, Deputy Editor, Junior.
“If excitement for animation is something you want to encourage, HUE Animation Toolbox is definitely for you. The packaging of the kit itself creates a sense of awe and wonder with its brightly coloured and high-quality clay imagery. I can just imagine the faces of a class full of children staring back at me, eagerly, as they lay their eyes on the dinosaur-clad box! The USB camera in the kit is great in its own right”. Ruth Astley, Award Judge
