Upcycled Tin Foil Robots

Kids will have fun making a trash bot.  The first step is the most fun, finding different parts and pieces to include.  They can use anything they want.  Tell them to find items such as old boxes, cans, plastic containers, paper towel rolls, cartons, bottle caps, string, and packaging material and most important their imagination.  

You'll also need tape and glue.

Remember, the trash bot doesn't have to be perfect.  He doesn't need to have an arm, leg, head or even an eye.  Anyway he's made is great.
