$2 per project – includes a terra cotta pot, paint, and a live strawberry plant.
Free Coloring Pages! For little artists who want to keep creating, we’ll have fun spring-themed coloring pages available.
Where? The Kids’ Activity Stations will be set up next to the PG Kids Toys Department & open during our regular store hours.
Come join the fun, get a little messy, and grow something special!
