Daddy Time

ATTENTION DADS:  You MUST take your kids (ages 3 and up) to Lowe's Build and Grow Clinic tomorrow morning.  It is a fantastic way to spend some one on one time with your kiddos, and it's FREE.  Who doesn't love that?  This fun-filled bit of family time comes with a Lowe's smock, goggles, and a badge to put on the smock for each completed craft.  The clinic is usually held every two weeks and there is a different craft to build each time.  This is seriously my husband's favorite thing to do with the kids on Saturday mornings.

 It started a few years ago when we lived in Savannah, GA and I had just had our second child.  Our daughter was almost 3 and my husband literally stumbled upon this program at our local Lowe's while he was out running errands with her.  He decided to give it a try, and she LOVED it!  She was unbelieveably proud of her creation when she got home and told me ALL about it!  She started asking her daddy to take her every day, and so it became a Saturday morning tradition.  She's now almost six and she still looks forward to going, even though her little brother tags along these days.

The program has grown a little over the years, and now registration is required.  Follow this link: http://lowesbuildandgrow.com/pages/default.aspx to register.  Also, the time of the clinic varies depending on the location, so be sure to pay attention to the times, or call the location of interest.  In just the last few weeks, the clinic has been offering times on Sunday afternoons as well.  I strongly encourage dads to spend some QT with your kiddos.  You won't regret it!
