Lowe’s Build & Grow Summer Schedule

Posted by My Dallas Mommy on Saturday, May 26th, 2012 at 3:15 pm

Mark your calendars! It’s going to be an exciting summer at Lowe’s Build & Grow workshops! They are teaming with Dreamworks to do theme-based projects all summer long. It kicks off in June with the release of Madagascar3 – your child will have the opportunity to build two vehicles that tie-in to the movie. Then in July there will be two Kung Fu Panda projects, and in August there are two Shrek projects. I’m guessing the kids will be loving this!

Another big surprise – they are adding SUNDAY workshops to the agenda. I think their Saturday workshops were so popular, that they decided to add a second opportunity on Sunday. So if one workshop is filled, surely you’ll be able to attend the second! Be sure to pre-register for these programs, as they are no longer taking walk-ins!

Here’s a breakdown of the entire summer schedule:
