## Programme

  What should a robot be able to do? First children think of possibilities, then they build and explore a simple robot that can vibrate and move.

### Exploring robots

      Which robots exist and what are they used for?

### Making a robot

      The group gets hands-on with small materials.

### Investigating movement

      Children watch what their robot does and how it moves.

  Suitable for groups 6 to 8 (ages 9–12). The content depends on the group and the materials available.
