Toothbrush Bot

Make a simple moving robot with an old vibrating tooth brush and some art supplies. We’re using a vibrating tooth brush because it has a vibrating motor inside it. This is the same type of motor that is inside a game controller or phone & makes the device vibrate when you get a message or crash your race car in the game. The actual motor looks something like the photo above. It has two wires that allow it to be hooked up to a battery and other controls, like a switch to turn it on and off. We’re leaving the motor inside the toothbrush & using the rest as our robot’s body.

Supplies:

• Old vibrating toothbrush

• Hot glue &/or tape

• Craft supplies to decorate your bot
