Bridgton Public Library

Bring Your Backyard to BPL

We’re inviting kids of all ages to be explorers and share their finds with our field Specimen Touch Table here in Youth Services. Gather a perfect leaf or some beautiful rocks and bring them in to the library starting Wednesday, September 21st. We’ll take a look at what is the same and what is different from your yards.

No animals, please. We want to make sure we are good stewards and don’t remove creatures from their homes.

Nature Journaling

Enjoy the end of summer and the transition to fall by keeping a nature journal. We have several excellent guides to get you started in our Parent section and in our Adult Nonfiction collection. All you need is some paper, pencils, crayons, or colored pencils and some time to look at the world around you. The Bridgton area has so many beautiful and unique places, get out and explore.
