Something to know going into this craft - it's functional and durable as opposed to super pretty, because ...

Printable Robot Alphabet

January 29, 2015 by Ellen Russell

We have a bit of an epidemic in our house. I find them everywhere, there doesn't seem to be a way to get rid of them, and just when you think you have them all cleaned up, you find five more!
