The next free Kids Activity Kit from Home Depot is just around the corner. These in-store events take place on the first Saturday of each month from 9am to 12 noon, but this time they're offering a bonus event later this month which means the next event is Saturday, March 7! Space is limited, so you need to register a spot.
In addition to keeping the craft forever, each kit comes with a free certificate of achievement, free Workshop Apron, and free commemorative pin.
March 7, 2026 Workshop Event: Leprechaun Trap
Observe how light refracts when going through different materials. Then, challenge students to use that knowledge to create a rainbow path to lure a leprechaun into their trap!
You can find more info on this month's free craft here. These free craft kits are intended for 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.
Don't miss the free Workshop Extension Activity!
Each free kit also has an “extension activity” created in tandem with Discovery Channel Education. These are kind of cool, as they let your child “upgrade” the free craft they built. The February 2026 craft extension can be found here.
Home Depot Promotional Sales
While you're at the workshop, you might be interested in the latest online and in-store promotions at The Home Depot. Many of these deals are not tied to any event, with up to 75% discounts!
Home Depot also has a cool “Buy of the Day” section, where they offer one-day only sales at huge discounts. It's worth checking out, you never know what they have.
Other Free Kids Events
This isn't the only upcoming free kids event either! If you're looking for some other freebies, then be sure to check these out.
