Materials: plastic cups (short and tall), paper towel tubes, cereal boxes, oatmeal containers, bottle caps, buttons, construction paper, scissors, craft glue, tape, silver metallic spray paint, wiggle eyes

Collect your items in a box. Let children use the materials to build their own robots. Use tape and glue to attach the pieces. Have an adult spray the robots with spray paint. Let dry. Let kids add wiggle eyes with craft glue. Encourage children to think of names for their robots and describe one thing their robot likes to do. They should also list the 3-D shapes they used to build their bot.
