Stop-motion movie with toys

Pick a toy. Move half an inch. Snap. Twenty photos in, you've got a movie.

60 min ages 7–13

How to do it

Use Stop Motion Studio (free on phones) or just the camera roll. Pick two toys and a 10-second story (LEGO guy steals a snack). Move-snap-move-snap, 30+ frames. Play it back at 8 fps. The first one is bad, the second is better, the third is genuinely fun.
