Registration is now open for the next free Kids Workshop at Home Depot. It will be held on Saturday, May 4 and children will build a free blooming art project.

Encourage a love for nature and ornithology in our hands-on workshop where you and your child can build a birdhouse. Your young birdwatcher can observe birds' behaviors like nest building and provide them a safe place to eat without the need for expensive equipment. Once your birdhouse is built, your child can decorate it with paint and stickers.

These workshops run from 9am-noon and are aimed at kids aged 5-12, though the age range is simply a guide instead of a strict rule. I can also confirm grown adults aged over 30 sometimes have trouble helping their little brother because I'm terrible with tools.

There are only a limited number of spaces available, so you need to register online ahead of time! Find your store, then scroll down and register under “Easel with Whiteboard”. When I used to take my little brother, they didn't enforce a strict arrival time. We would often show up around 10am and have plenty of time to get the project finished before noon!

In addition to the free bookend set, children receive a free certificate of achievement, a Workshop Apron, and a commemorative pin while supplies last.
