This document provides instructions for making a thaumatrope, which is an early optical toy. It lists the materials needed as a sheet of paper, glue, scissors, compass, thin stick, and pen or color pens. The instructions then outline the four steps: cut out two circles from paper and draw a picture split between the two; place a stick through the circles and glue them together with the picture halves aligned; color the drawing for visual appeal; and spin the stick between the hands to see the picture combine into a single image.
