It is a bright Saturday morning, and Giorgio and his sibling are home with their parents.

1

"What can I do today?" Giorgio asked himself.

I should plant a seed or do something meaningful and helpful.

2

"I can build a robot," he told his sister.

"It will help mummy with the household chores," Giogio imagined.

3

Giogio went into his father's storage room.

He took some cardboard, a pair of scissors, an old toy car, some torchlight batteries and wires.

4

He began cutting the cards and attaching parts of his old toy car to build his own robot.

5

Finally, he was done with his robot. "My robot looks beautiful," he said to himself.

"Does it work?" asked his older sister.

6

"I think it will work," Giorgio responded.

He inserted the battery while holding on to his old toy car remote.

7

Giogio pressed the start button and his robot moved forward and backwards just like his old toy car.

He screamed, "I built a robot."

Everyone was impressed and excited.
