Home Depot Kids Workshop
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.
The workshops teach children do-it-yourself skills and tool safety, while at the same time helping to instill a sense of accomplishment. And to top it off each child receives a kid-sized orange apron, similar to The Home Depot associates’ aprons, and an achievement pin YAAAY!
