My daughter did this for 5-6 years (lots of pins were collected for her apron). Yes, wet wipes and paper towels are a must to bring along. Also, paint the wood before you build. Yes, the kiddos may want to jump right in, but they turn out much better this way (easier to get all the corners/small parts). Also, don’t forget to take pictures of the building. These memories last a lifetime! Enjoy them while they are young! – Hip reader, Adrianne
We just did one of these, and here are a few observations & tips from our experience at our local store. Things might be different at your store. It was a gun, and we will definitely be doing it again.
– Everything is provided, including the necessary tools – screwdrivers, hammers, glasses, etc Some of them are small for kids, and some are bigger for adults to use. My kids went crazy with the hammers, so watch out!
– Even though they offer paint and brushes for kiddos also, there were no napkins or paper towels for cleaning hands, clothes, etc. Bring some of your own wipes, napkins, or whatever, just in case!
– There is no set start or stop time. You just show up between 9 AM and noon, go to the designated area/table, and open a kit to begin working. I don’t know how they manage attendance, but there weren’t many kids when we got there, but lots by the time we left. We were never asked our names or checked in on a list, either, so you could probably just show up.
– The HD staff don’t actually teach or show everyone what to do unless you ask. This is not a guided class or something. The instructions are pretty good for DIY, but don’t expect someone to walk you through the entire thing step by step.
– The tables got pretty crowded and cluttered with all the tools, parts, and other stuff, so we eventually just went to an open area on the ground nearby. It was much easier and quieter to hammer nails on the ground than on a plastic table. – Hip reader, Joe
