Build. Learn. Create.

I know a few of you were disappointed when you found out, that Lowe's doesn't offer the Build and Grow program in your area. My Mom, told me that Home Depot has a program called Build. Learn. Create. It is held the first Saturday of every month, at ALL Home Depots. Along with the kit to build, the kids will receive an Orange Apron and an Achievement pin (Which I think is better then a patch, cause then I don't have to sew it). The only downfall for some of you in the fact that the age requirements are 5-12 years old. Where as Lowe's has a three year minimum. I think that I will put in a little call to Home Depot and ask if my three year old could come. he is better with a hammer than I am. The worst they could say is no. I'll update this post with their response.

Good new with Lowe's, is that when I signed Brett up for the Activity yesterday, they had a little survey. I have a slight feeling that they maybe gearing up to sell the kits in the store. Yeah, you have to pay for them(Even though I can't imagine them being too expensive). However, it would still be a fun activity for kids and parents to do together. If they ask for any more input from me, I'll tell them that I think it is stinking, that they don't offer this program in Utah!!

***UPDATE***
So I called Home Depot today. The Lady said that they were not strict on the age limit, and that if I brought my son in they would not turn us away. She did say that we would have to be with him at all times, but I figured that. Since I would not leave him alone with a screwdriver around my house. I would recommend calling your Home Depot, just to make sure that they do not care.

Happy Building!!

Sign Language

So I have totally fallen off of the sign language band wagon. I decided a few days ago that I would try it with Kate. In a matter of TWO DAYS(I couldn't believe it), she had mastered the following:

Thank you

More

Milk

Please

Come Here

Water

We are currently working on:
Chocolate (a must for every girl)

Book

Mom

Dad


I think I am going to try and teach her a few sentences. We will see how she does. I am so excited that I will be able to teach her a few more then Brett learned, and I get to brush up on my sign language.
