Home Depot Kids Workshops

Nothing planned for Saturday morning? Why not head over to Home Depot for their free Kids workshop.

It's a free "how to" workshop designed for 5-12 year olds. This week (May 1st) they will be making a picket fence planter to take home. In addition to the project to take home, each child will receive a kid sized apron and an achievement pin. The workshop is between 9:00 and 12:00 at all Home Depot stores. Check it out here for more information. What a great activity to take your child to for a little parent/child one on one time. Maybe you will both learn something? :-)
