Gather Your Robot Parts

Gather green and red card paper, a tin can, tissue roll, bottle cap, googly eyes, pipe cleaners, and Fevicol MR. These recycled materials will form our special Think Green robot.

Cover the Body and Legs

Measure and cut green paper strips to fit around the tissue roll and tin can. Stick them firmly using Fevicol to give your robot a bright green body and sturdy legs for standing.

Connect the Robot Head

Take a bottle cap and glue it securely onto the top center of the tin can. This serves as the robot’s neck or head piece, connecting the upper and lower sections of its shiny body.

Create Limbs and Heart

Cut a red paper heart for the chest. Fold green paper strips into zigzag patterns to make springy robot hands. These fun parts add personality and movement to your green creation.

The Final Assembly

Stick all the parts and add a pipe cleaner antenna and a Think Green label. Similarly, you can create more such characters to inspire everyone to reuse old things!
