When faced with a request for a robot costume, many people turn to the trusty cardboard box. But The Peanut made this request when she was 3-years-old, and I just didn’t see her hanging out in cardboard very long. So I headed to the fabric store to think. After walking all the aisles I found myself in the far back corner of the store where the foam lives. Huzzah! The best part of using foam for a costume is that unlike cardboard, it bends — your little robot will be able to sit for costume story hour at the library or the Halloween Parade in town.
