Build & Grow


A few Saturdays ago, we attended our first Build & Grow workshop at Lowe's. We have a friend who has raved about them for years now, but it had just never fit into our schedule before now... and it doesn't hurt that we have a Lowe's just 5 minutes from the house. This was a wonderful Saturday morning activity for the whole family!







In one of the aisles, they set up a low workbench made with buckets and sheets of plywood. You can grab a kit, an apron and a hammer before you find a seat. There were a lot of families there with all different ages of kids. Darren worked with Kyrie and I worked with Degen. Our project was to build an airplane. We worked together to follow the instructions (which was mostly pictures, so it was great for the kids). There were pieces to fit, nails to hammer and stickers to decorate.







We all had a great time and both kids were very proud of their finished projects! In the days to follow, Kyrie would frequently ask when we could go back to do another one! Thankfully, they host Build & Grows twice a month, so we are heading back soon!
