This weeks Lowes Build is :  The Croods: Planter

Saturday, April 13 (10:00 AM)

The Croods are back at Lowe’s this weekend! Your child will love building this Planter and decorating it with their favorite creatures and characters from the movie!

Home Depot Kids Workshop

We have been OVERLY impressed with Home Depot builds recently.  The last one had snacks, games and the build all in one!  This Saturday, (April 6) from 9:00AM-12:00PM is the next free workshop and they will be making a birdfeeder.  This build is best for kids ages 4-10 in my opinion but often younger kids are there building as well.

Lowes Build and Grow



The Lowes kids build this week is
The Croods: Piranhakeet Chomper

Saturday, March 23 (10:00-11:00 AM)

 

Your child will love this kit! Bring them in this weekend to build this awesome Piranhakeet Chomper inspired by DreamWorks Animation's THE CROODS!

Lowes Build and Grow

My son will LOVE this week's Lowes Build.  Monster Jam®, featuring Monster Mutt® Saturday, March 9 (10:00-11:00 AM)  I recommend these builds for ages 4-8 although both younger and older kids are often there when we go.  It is recommended that you pre-register here although we have never found it absolutely necessary.

If you are planning to go to the one in Marietta plan to be there at 10:00 or you will not get a kit.  The man who is in charge said they expect to run out within a few minutes.  This is one of the most popular builds of the year.

Home Depot Kids Workshop

Saturday, March 2nd  9:00AM – 12:00PM Home Depot will be offering a Kids Workshop to build this race car.  The car will come with stickers to decorate however you want.  The home Depot builds are (in my opinion) much more kid friendly than the Lowes ones so you can easily take a child as young as 3 and build their own car!  No registration necessary.

This week (Saturday, Feb. 9 10:00AM) the LOWES kids build workshop will be making a wheel of love.  Not one of my favorite choices . . . especially for the boys!   I would recommend this free workshop is for kids ages  4-8 but you may find kids younger and older at your build.  Each child will get an apron, goggles and a patch of their accomplishment.  You are encouraged to pre-register here (although it usually isn't a problem at the Marietta or Parkersburg stores if you don't)

LOWES Build and Grow

 

LOWES build and Grow is making a mystery project this week.   (Janurary 12th at 10:00). Each store may be getting a different kit so it will be fun to see what you build!  This happened once before and our store actually had a bunch of choices . . . it was nice to be able to select what we would most use.  Workshop is free but they do suggest you pre-register here (anyone else have trouble with that website?)  and I would suggest these projects for ages 4-9, although younger and older kids are often at the workshops.

LOWES Build and Grow

LOWES build and Grow is making a Gingerbread House this week for Christmas. (December 8th at 10:00). Workshop is free but they do suggest you pre-register here.  I would suggest these projects for ages 3-9 although younger and older kids are often at the workshops.

Crafts 2000 Make It Take It Event

Saturday, December 1st 11:00-3:00 Crafts 2000 will be having a make it take it event for the kids making Ceramic ornaments. 

Sunday, December 2nd from 11:00-3:00 they will be making an adorable Gingerbread Card (I think this is more of a teen/adult activity)

The lady that runs this event is SOOO good with the kids and I always learn about new craft ideas and products.  She told me that she may have some wooden ornaments available for the younger kids to paint instead of the ceramic ones.  Either way, I know it will be fun for even the preschool set.  (my 5 year old has ALWAYS enjoyed the crafts)  These projects take only a few minutes and all the materials are set up and ready.  Well organized and easy.

LOWES Build and Grow

LOWES build and Grow is making a Rise of the Guardians Sandman Plane this week from the new movie. (December 1st at 10:00). Workshop is free but they do suggest you pre-register here and I would suggest these projects for ages 3-9 although younger and older kids are often at the workshops.
