Paper Robot Armies

My guys are all about amassing armies. They can use anything — scraps of paper, marbles, etc. Here we downloaded and printed 2 different transformers from the San Jose Mercury News site. They did some of the cutting, I did the rest. We folded them together and voila! Let the battle begin!

Here's how it works!
Grab a child in your life and let them dictate what you all will do. Work how you work so they can see what you do and how you do it. If it's on the computer, give them the mouse to color something in or if your medium of choice is paint, have them paint. Just be creative!! You can see what I do with one of my styles here. Enjoy your time and just have fun! Participation is open to all.
