Build and Grow....
Lowe's has a wonderful program called Build and Grow. Through out the summer we have taken the kids a few times. They have made hang gliders, and race cars and even a bird house. They enjoy it, it gives them good hand-eye coordination, and they get a good feel of self esteem because they did it all on their own. And a shot of confidence too. We weren't too sure if we were going to make it to Lowe's in time for them to build, Luckily we made it just in time. The kids each got out their instructions and supplies. I help hold nails and blocks of wood in place but other than that they did everything. I have to say they did an AWESOME job too. They made school buses, which is fitting to the fact that it is school time once again. They enjoy going to Lowe's so much and building that its a wonder that I don't take them every time there is a Build and Grow... Well i chalk it up to old age :)
