Do robots celebrate christmas, Eid or Hannukah? I am not sure if they do, but I do know last year a toy robot brought great joy to a little boy on Eid day in Cairo. These two mercury glass robots above brought joy to a collector in USA. My point, Robots bring joy and happiness on all happy-present-giving-days, religious or non-religious.

Scarce 1960's Cragstan Wind-up Kitchen Robot. Made of plastic and tin. This robot has arms that are a fork and spoon, funnel for a hat, cheese grater body, and a measuring spoon and spatula in his back pack. This robot does makes me think, What its designer envisoned when he created this one? Maybe this robot was created to walk on counter tops of the kitchen in a near future and tell recipes and jokes to the cook?
