The next free Kids Activity Kit from Home Depot is just around the corner! These in-store events usually take place on the first Saturday of each month from 9am to 12 noon, however this month they're running a bonus event at the end of the month! Space is limited, so you need to register a spot under “In-Store Kids Workshops.”
In addition to keeping the craft forever, each kit comes with a free certificate of achievement, free Workshop Apron, and free commemorative pin. You can find more info on this month's free craft here.
November 25 Freebie Event: Penguin Ornament
No additional info is available.
December 3 Freebie Event: Gingerbread House
Take gingerbread houses to the next level with a DIY design challenge in which students design a sweet yard to go with their gingerbread house. Students will use simple materials to create their ideal landscape.
January 6 Freebie Event: Delivery Truck
No additional info is available.
If you prefer, you can purchase this & previous month's kit here while supplies last and guarantee you'll get one! This is completely optional though. You can also purchase an earlier kit, which supplies last. I've linked to the ones I could find down below.
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.
Get craft kits for home for under $5!
If you miss out on any kits, Home Depot is now selling previous months kits online for less than $5! After purchase, you can opt for free in-store pickup at your own convenience.
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. For instance, the November 2021 Amphibious Military Vehicle extension teaches your child how to build life vest for their imaginary passengers.
