Our annual “Storybook Character Pumpkins on Parade” event is right around the corner. This is a fun family activity designed to encourage a love of reading and to promote the library.

Pumpkins on Parade!    October 27-31

What:  Decorate a pumpkin to look like a character from a Brook Hill Lower School library book!  Pumpkins may be real or “fake” made out of plastic etc.

Who:  Any student may participate. This is optional, not required!

Where:  Brook Hill Lower School Library

When:  Pumpkins must arrive October 23rd or 24th to be considered for judging.  Pumpkins will be on display October 27-31. Students will vote for their favorite storybook pumpkin. Winners will be announced on Friday, October 31.

All entries will receive a prize.

How:  Be creative! Use paint, cloth, stickers, adhesives or props to add details which will transform your pumpkin into a character. No carved pumpkins please. Parents may help but the idea should come from the student.
