Hydraulic arm - use syringes, aquarium tubing, wood. Kids build a similar one at a 4H junk drawer robotics class and love it. Pencil top erasers at the end of the hand work well as grippers. Let them try it first with air in the lines instead of water - air compresses so it doesn't work as well. (Good to teach some about properties of liquids, solids, gasses.)
