Home Depot Kids Club Cork Board

The first Saturday of each month Home Depot does a Kids Club. Madison looks forward to this every month.

For August Madison made a pink and black mini cork board. I love that she can, for the most part, do the entire project herself. I may have to hold a nail or hold 2 pieces of wood together but she mostly does it herself.

Next month... Football Goal Post Game.

Home Depot Kids Workshop

Home Depot Kids Workshop 8am - 12pm. First Saturday of every month. (I can't believe we didn't know about this before. We have missed out.)

I thought this would be a 4 hour workshop and these little kids would be building a #20 Home Depot Race Car from a block of wood (with a lot of help from the parents).

8am on a Saturday? Yuck. My weekend where I can sleep til 10am is sadly cancelled.

A 4 hour workshop for kids ages 5 - 12? There is no way these kids will have the attention span or ability to stick with this class. Except Madison of course, she is a mini genius :)

I was totally wrong.

The 8am - 12pm workshop actually started at 9am, and was just a 30min - 1hour project that Madison was able to complete all by herself. Literally by herself. I sat across from her and took pictures while she worked away. She had a blast. She loves using tools. She has had her own toolbox ... I think she was born with it. If J is fixing something she is right beside him with her toolbox ready to work.

This workshop was perfect for her. She got an apron with a pin that shows she completed the Race Car workshop. I can not wait to add many more pins to it. Next month, Window Bird Feeder.
