Home Depot Workshop
Home Depot does free workshops every month for kids. The kids get a Home Depot apron with their name on it and they get to use hammers without their parents freaking out! The kids have so much fun doing it. Today the project was a fire truck with a removable whistle on top. I think this definitely topped the birdhouse they did before. Caden's getting pretty good with a hammer, he can usually get the nails in pretty strait without any help, which is a feat even I haven't mastered yet.
This was Blake's first time because technically you're supposed to be 5, but there were lots of younger kids there, so we let him do it too. I had to hammer in the nails about halfway, and then he did the rest.
Here are the finished firetrucks! When the kids are finished, they get a pin with a picture of the project on it to put on their aprons.

Here is the link for the kids workshop if anyone would like to try it next month.
