I love optical illusions, messing with your eyes and your brain. Helps make you realize how much we rely on our senses but how very wrong they can be. Perspective makes such a huge difference on how we perceive the world and you can only become wiser when you start to think from many different perspectives. So make some optical illusion crafts for kids and really everybody and start hacking your brain.
Here are some classics
Old woman or young girl?
Goblet or two faces?
bird or bunny?
