Aside from the images, the sound effects to accompany them are also interesting. The sound of horses racing, wind blowing, or thunder and rain are all made from these simple tools.

Although these old-school animations may not seem as up-to-date as current digital cartoons, the laughter and the tears they brought to us as children will never be lost.
