Home Depot Kids Workshop!

My girls love going to our local Home Depot on the first Saturday of each month for their FREE Kids Workshop!


We headed there back in October and made a Rescue Plane!  



 


In addition, there were many community workers there!  The girls loved walking around and meeting our local heroes and seeing their cool gadgets!


 


This semester, I'm teaching a Community Helpers preschool class at our weekly co-op.  While at Home Depot, I asked if their "Workshop Team" traveled and they do!  The lady in charge was thrilled and more than willing to come out to our local co-op for a workshop!  She was extremely organized and brought all materials with her and she was so good with the kids! 

At our local co-op, she discussed all the tools and safety rules with the children. 


Then, it was on to building the rescue plans.  We arranged for several high schoolers to come in and help the preschoolers with the building of the planes.


Lastly, it was time to paint! 

  
The kids LOVED the Home Depot rescue plane workshop!  And, they loved their aprons, workshop pins and certificates, and balloons! 


There's a FREE Home Depot Kids Workshop this weekend!  Everyone will be building a Tic-Tac-Toe game.  Be sure to check it out at your local Home Depot.
