Instructions:
Spray paint both boxes silver.
Cut out two large round eye holes, a large V-shaped or square shaped mouth hole, nose hole if wanted, and arm holes big enough to accommodate the dryer vent pipe.
Cut the vent pipe in two pieces and attach in arm holes.
Then use glue and your imagination to finish.
You may also spray paint vent pipe and old. Use one half of egg on each side of small box to make ears.
Add pipe cleaners at top (straight or curly-Q around) to form antennas.
On the front, use Easter eggs, ribbon, clothes pins, markers, and shoe string to create control panel.
Bow ties or other for a girl robot (you can also use ribbons to tie on the antennas...a little imagination will go a long way).
