    Default Lowes Free Kids Build and Grow Workshops/ Our Frugal Father's Day Gift

    Anybody on here take their kids to the Free Lowes Build and Grow Workshops on every other Saturday? If you don't I would HIGHLY suggest it as a free Saturday activity for the summer (they do them all year long but we only do them in the summer). I have the websites to both Lowes and the one Home Depot does on my blog. The next 2 projects are also listed on there.
    We made a picture frame for free this past Saturday and this week the kids and I tailored it to my husband's hobbies. If you would like to see it check out my blog post about it

    I was afraid my 4 year old was not going to like them and that we would mostly be doing it for my 8 year old. Turns out my 4 year old LOVED it.
    They just gave their frames to their daddy this morning and were sooo excited for him to open them

    Glad to have helped, though I'm seeing your response late. My kids loved making the Monster Truck. In fact my little boy has played with his non-stop since he made it
