    A fun kit for kids! Add an empty soda can & an AA battery & build The Tin Can Robot!

    He's inexpensive too, under $10. The Tin Can Robot kit teaches kids the value of recycling by turning a used soda can into a fun and functional robot. No special tools or knowledge required; the kit contains detailed instructions and all the necessary parts. Use the kit to create a silly robot or a motorized monster, or a combination of the two. Requires one AA batteries (not included) and you will need one empty soda (or I guess, an empty 12 oz beer can will work too) to complete the project. As you saw on the show it is motorized and yes, the motor's included too. That's what the AA battery powers. It recommended for ages 8 years and up. I bought the kit, but I'm not as smart an 8 year old, so I didn't built it. Was under $10 on 7/18/19 - like $9.64 or so.
