Lauren's Amazing Recycled Robot

We were very excited when this fantastic drawing arrived at the Show Me Office.

Meet the robot who can cook your dinner AND wash your clothes!

Mo-Jo Jay-Jo is the creation of the very talented Lauren, who is 10.

Mo-Jo's head is made from a microwave, and he has a banana mouth and candles for eyes.

His body is made from a washing machine.

Lauren has used fizzy drink bottles for Mo-Jo's arms...

...and he has heating pipes for legs and saucepan feet!

Thanks Lauren, we think Mo-Jo- Jay-Jo is GREAT!

Lauren lives in Manchester and likes the Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester, where you can find out about hundreds of amazing inventions, including computers, radios, trains, cars and aeroplanes.
