Create a pumpkin storybook character!

CREATE A PUMPKIN STORYBOOK CHARACTER!

I thought it would be fun if we could create a pumpkin patch of storybook characters for the library!  Anyone who would like to decorate a pumpkin to look like a character from a favorite book can bring it into the library to be put on display.


  • Real or fake pumpkins can be used.
  • Pumpkins must NOT be carved, only painted and decorated.  
  • Make a small label for your pumpkin with your name and the name of the character.
  • If you wanted to leave your pumpkin at home and just bring in a photograph, that is fine.
  • Pumpkins can be brought in any time. They will be on display and will need to be taken home by Friday, November 3rd or they will be discarded.

This activity is optional and is not a contest, but rather a fun way to celebrate the fall season!


Ask me if you have any questions. Here are some photos for inspiration:
