Time: 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. (noon)

On the first Saturday of every month, The Home Depot hosts a free Kids Workshop. At the workshop, each child is given the monthly kit to build and keep, a free Kids Workshop apron, a commemorative pin for that project, and a certificate of achievement.

The January workshop provides a tool to help our children take control of their money by telling it where to go . . . in a savings shed. 🙂

What: Savings Shed

When: Saturday, January 7, 2012

Time: 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. (noon)

Where: Your local Home Depot store

 

Though recommended for children ages 5 – 12, my children have attended since my oldest was 2 years old. Some projects are easier to assemble than others, but all the workshops offer a great opportunity for family fun.

Home Depot: Snowman Napkin Holder

On Saturday, December 3, 2011, from 9:00 a.m. to noon at your local Home Depot store, children (ages 5-12) can build a snowman napkin holder. At the Kids Workshop, all kids get to keep their craft, receive a free Kids Workshop apron, earn a commemorative pin, and obtain a certificate of achievement.

If your child is not interested in making this craft to display at your home, remember that grandparents would welcome handmade gifts from their grandchildren. 🙂

As the weekend is drawing near, I wish you special time with your family while using time wisely. Enjoy your family!
