Admin Here’s a free Saturday plan worth grabbing: Home Depot is holding its monthly Kids Workshop on Saturday, November 7, 2026, and this month’s build is a wooden Dump Truck. Kids hammer it together, paint it, and take it home — the whole thing is free.
The details: workshops run 9am–12pm local time at participating Home Depot stores. It’s aimed at ages 5–12, and a parent or guardian stays with their child for the session. Every kid gets the full project kit with all materials, plus a collectible project pin and a completion certificate — first-timers also get the iconic orange Home Depot kids apron.
How to register
- Head to Home Depot’s Kids Workshop page (link below) and pick your local store.
- Choose the November 7 Dump Truck workshop and complete the free registration form — spots are first-come, first-served.
- You’ll get a confirmation email with the details.
- Show up a little early on November 7 — these workshops are popular and kits can run out.

Fine print: free while supplies last; the suggested age range is 5–12, though younger kids can join with active parental help. Event details can change, so confirm the date with your local store before you go.
