Nick and Nack enjoy working together. Nick is a boy who knows how to build and Nack is a robot who enjoys finding things. Their projects often use found or recycled objects. For instance, after eating a box of ice pops, they use the sticks to make a birdhouse. They also clean up the yard and use sticks blown down by the wind to create a kite.
