Description

Anithings is a creativity tool which allows children to produce animated stories. Children can design and create their own characters and settings or use ready made ones from the bank. Animations are made by changing objects properties such as position, size and colour or by recording motion using the mouse.

Animated stories can be created to link with any topic, be it Vikings, Pirates, Fairy tales or wherever your imagination takes you. The addition of speech bubbles to your characters enables a unique storytelling medium to enhance and build upon literacy skills. Add special effects to enhance your mini masterpieces or use the storyboard to plan an epic movie.


Please note that this product is delivered by email as a digital download with activation code.
