Day 18 (Creative Sprint): Create Something for a Child

Day 18: Create something for a child you know.

My eight-year-old is always asking to make robots with me, so today he helped make his own Bitty Bot . . . with a Dr. Pepper bottlecap as feet and a spinning gear.

Day 353 - Passing on the Robot Love

My oldest son and I have spent part of the day working on his very own remote control ATR (All Terrain Robot).  Good progress today.

P.S.  I've also been working on my "robot parts" side table.

Day 299 - Mother's Day

I've officially brainwashed my children.  My work here is done . . .

Day 290 - Robot Trio

My oldest helped me out during my pre-art-show-madness by drawing some robots while I priced things.

Day 265 - Priorities

My son wanted to put up a list of what we had to do today for homeschool--he really likes to check things off.  I wanted him to know his priorities were all off.

Day 216 - Blokus

One of my son's received Blokus for his birthday.  The oldest one didn't bother with the directions, he just went straight for what he says is a robot head.

Day 181 - He's a Gem

Today, my son wanted to make a robot out of "gems" he rescued when I cleaned out my mosaic supplies a while back.  The red ones in the middle are buttons, okay?

Day 179 - What's Up? by Rylan

My middle son decided he also wanted to add a robot to The Sketchbook Project journal.  So instead of showing more random, half-finished journal pages, feast your eyes on this beauty . . .

Day 169 - Baseball Bots

While I've been busy trying to finish my sketchbook for The Sketchbook Project, my oldest boy asked if he could create the official project of the day.  Here's his masterpiece:

Day 130 - That's My Boy

While I've been sketching a few new bot ideas, my oldest has been drawing his own.  Here's a couple of my favorites.

Day 109 - It's Not Baseball!

At my sister-in-law's party, the kids made plates.  Apparently, you can draw with Sharpies on plates and then "cook" them in the oven to make the drawing permanent.  I assumed my baseball-obsessed child would draw something baseball-esque.  He drew a robot.  <Proud.>

Day 104 - Puppet Perfection

Fall crafts with my 5-year-old.  He made an owl, guess what I made?

Day 91 - Brainwashing?

As I was drawing robots at the school table, I looked up to find my five-year-old drawing this.  The explanation about each button's function was quite extensive--I'll leave it to your imagination.
