Lowe's Build and Grow

For those of you that don't know about Home Depot Kids Workshop you will probably want to check it out!  My Home Depot Kids Workshop blog post from June 2012 explained our experiences.  We still attend these workshops every month and have collected many pins for the kiddos aprons.

Last summer we attended a couple of Lowe's Build and Grow workshops.  I honestly thought it was something that they only offered over the summer.  However, I recently found out that they offer opportunities at least once a month!  You do have to RSVP for these and the schedule is never on a set date (like Home Depot which has there craft the 1st Saturday of every month).  I highly recommend printing your RSVP waiver/form to bring with you.  If you don't have it you will need to hand write one out again.  Some sessions do fill up so they do keep a RSVP list to verify you are on it.

Lowe's crafts are usually more geared toward hit movies or other popular kids activities.  Overall, it's definitely worth doing - and it is free!!!

They have aprons for first time visitors and they give the kids a certificate with an iron on patch when they have completed the craft.  So we have started our patch collection on the kiddos Lowe's aprons.  I just wish I would have known this last summer.  We had some Shrek patches that I have since tossed because I had no clue what to do with them.

Just 1 patch for this picture.
Now we already have 3 patches on each apron!

Monster Jam craft - perfect for my kiddos!!
This one did fill up at most locations as soon as they let people start RSVPing.

Lowe's Build and Grow is offered at pretty much every location.  During a recent vacation in Las Vegas we decided to do a craft at a local Lowe's.  We got lucky this time - they even let us keep the hammer and goggles (for eye protection)!!!

We love palm trees!
