🧡 PAPER PUMPKIN OPTION
Would your family rather make a paper pumpkin instead?
That’s perfectly fine!
If your student needs orange construction paper, we’ll provide it.
✨ OPTIONAL: LIBRARY DONATION
If you’d like to donate your decorated (plastic) pumpkin,
we’ll use it to help decorate the library for next year’s event!
We can’t wait to see your creative book character pumpkins!
