We took apart a computer monitor and a TV/VCR combo. I filled this metal cart with the internal parts and put the empty screen shells next to the cart. The flat screen monitors displayed videos of a dancing robot and the matrix (green falling numbers). The styrofoam head can be purchased at hobby lobby.
I made the gears with leftover insulation foam board from the Heroes series.
I filled glass jars with odds and ends: colored blocks, batteries, wires, ping pong balls, markers, etc. On the table we also had a magnifying glass, rubber chicken, work gloves, box of foil, cordless telephone, lamp, and duct tape. The chalkboard was covered in random math equations and the dry erase board had the "plans" for the exo-suit we created for the skits. On the wall I taped random robot blueprints Corey found online.
It was a great series and the kids loved Dr. Tomorrow and his assistant Gasket! Check out a video of highlights from the series on the Southern Hills Facebook page!
