You can do it kids workshops
Stuck for something to do at the weekend?
Want something that you and your family can do together?
B&Q kids workshops are fun and a chance for you to enjoy making something together.
- We'll show you step by step how to make something from scratch
- We'll let you have a go yourself under the guidance of our DIY experts
- We'll teach you new skills such as sawing, drilling, gluing and nailing
- Ages of 7-11 accompanied by a parent or guardian
With more than 15 workshops to choose from there is something for everyone. One week you might be making mug holders and the next perfecting planters or building bird boxes for the garden, but all under the watchful eye of our very own kids workshops experts at selected B&Q warehouses.
We'll provide the materials and the guidance if you can bring along the enthusiasm!
