This fantastic value, highly creative and educational toy will bring hours of pleasure to the young film director who with the click of a button can animate anything from a favourite toy, LEGO figures, clay creations or a 2D drawing.”
Why UKMums.tv loved HUE Animation Studio – Our tester said: “This is a fabulous kit that provides hours of fun for budding film-makers. It’s really easy to use and we love how everything we need to make our mini film is included. It will grab your child’s interest right from the get go, and is very educational and highly creative.”
