WPF animation of elements between layouts?

Question

I have two different ways to display elements in a WPF application. The first uses a WrapPanel, and the second uses a vertical StackPanel. I can switch between two ways of displaying my elements by switching the host panel between two types. This works, but you get an instance change in the layout.

Instead, I want the children to animate between the two layouts to give the user a nice effect. Any ideas how I could do this? Do I need to use the canvas instead and manually locate the children? That would be a real pain!
