While I've been home in Ontario, my friend had her twin girls and the day that she was giving birth, I stopped by her house to see how her other little guy was doing. My friends and their kids were there making robots to fill up the time before they could visit the hospital. Sadly, it turned out that the children were afraid of the robots, so in an effort to show them that it's just a person in a box, I donned one. Here is the video of me trying to get out ~
A picture of the final robots modeled by my friend Beth and myself.
And some words from the children about their robot experience...
So the moral of the story is ...just give them a box and do refrain from shiny paper.
