So, yesterday we built our own robots! We took some #10 cans and some random hardware and put our robots together. We went to Home Depot yesterday and Trent picked out most of his pieces that he wanted to use. I think he just liked playing with all the things we normally don't let him go crazy with and touch in that store!
We brought home all our goodies and attached the pieces to sticky back magnets and let the boys put together their potato head-type robots. Since the pieces can come off the fun doesn't end with just one time. When we finish all the pieces go back in the can and the lids goes on until next time. Trent's already played with it several times last night and today.
It's such a cute, fun way to build upon what we saw last week and give them some hands on creating time. Maybe we'll have to build him a robot costume next. Themes are great!
(Oh, and I came across this idea from Famly Fun)
