Children’s Halloween, Thank You!

Development AssistantFYI
We had such a great turnout for our Children’s Halloween Costume Party during storytime last week. Lots of Halloween fun was had, from an exciting story, to a costume parade, prizes, food and more!
 
We are so grateful for our littlest community members and for all the joy and creativity brought to our space— from tiny superheroes and sparkly fairies to spooky ghosts and clever book characters, there was so much excitement all around.
 
Thank You, Bridgton families! 👻
 
Events like this remind us how special our Bridgton community is. Your smiles, enthusiasm, and support make the library such a fun and welcoming place to gather and grow together.
 
We’re already looking forward to our next family event — until then, keep reading, creating, and using your imagination for more fun-filled times at the Library! 📚💛
 

This Week at the Children’s Craft Table

Development AssistantFYI

Fall Craft Time at Bridgton Public Library! 🍁

As the leaves turn and the air grows chilly for the wintery days ahead, we’re celebrating the creativity and wonder of the season with our Children’s Fall Craft Table. This week, we’re featuring Acorn People—a delightful hands-on craft that invites children to look closely at the natural world and imagine what stories it might tell.

Using simple materials gathered from nature—acorns, twigs, pinecones, moss, and more—kids can build their own tiny woodland characters. This open-ended craft encourages creative expression, fine motor skills, and a sense of connection to the outdoors. Each Acorn Person has its own personality, shape, and style, making this a fun activity for children of all ages (and their grown-ups, too!).

Our craft table is set up for drop-in exploration during all open hours, and no registration is required. All supplies are provided—we just invite you to bring your imagination and your support person.✨

Craft Available Through: November 8th
Location: Children’s Room Craft Table
All ages welcome — families encouraged to create together!

We hope you’ll stop by, get creative, and make a new acorn friend to take home!
