Since this is officially his first Valentine's party at a school, I wanted to make something fun to give to his friends.
I found some robot tattoo Valentines at the Dollar Tree, some robot bags in Target's Dollar zone, and thought I'd package them with something else. Hmmm, what could it be?
Affirmative! It's a juice box robot.
Here's what you need:
Juice box | Candy (I used Hershey nuggets, smarties, starburst) | Googly eyes | Glue Dots or clear tape | Robot Valentine cards or tattoos | Red paper | Sharpie marker
Adhere the Hershey nuggets together to make the head. Alternatively, you could use any other square candies. Then stick them to the top of the box.
Add the googly eyes (mine thankfully were sticker ones, which made it easier).
Add some Smarties for arms (or any other long-ish candy, like Laffy Taffy) and stick on your card (in my case, the tattoos).
We added some Starburst candies for the feet, but you could also use them for the neck.
On the back, I added a little construction paper heart that said "I'm nuts and bolts about you!"
If you can't find robot-themed Valentine cards, you could always put the heart on the front with your child's name on it.
Here's the final result, a thirst-quenching friendly robot.
Oh my gosh, how adorable! I would never think to do something like this. LOVE!
