Have some fun with your kids and help them learn proper safety practices by participating in the monthly Kids Workshops at Home Depot.
Kids Workshops are free “How-To Clinics” designed for children ages 5-12. The workshops are offered on the first Saturday of each month between 9:00 a.m. and noon at all The Home Depot stores. Children accompanied by an adult construct projects from pre-fabricated kits. The kits are designed to be both educational and practical.
The Home Depot’s Kids Workshops offer useful projects including the creation of toolboxes, fire trucks and mail organizers, as well as more educational projects, such as a window birdhouse, bughouse or Declaration of Independence frame kit.
The workshops teach children do-it-yourself skills and tool safety, while at the same time helping to instill a sense of accomplishment. Additionally, this fun time allows for quality one-on-one time between adults and children.
In addition to the newly constructed project kit, each child receives a kid-sized orange apron, similar to The Home Depot associates’ aprons, and an achievement pin.
Fun Facts
- Since 1997, 12 million projects have been built at Kids Workshops
- More than 750,000 children built their first toolbox at The Home Depot
- Nearly 600,000 birdhouses have been constructed at Kids Workshops
- More than 290,000 children have built a step stool at Kids Workshops to help them reach higher
- 75 children per store attend a Kids Workshop on average while many stores have 200 kids attend regularly
