Stop into the Idea Lab between 10:00am and 12:00pm every Friday in October to make a creepy Halloween decoration and turn your home into a spooky mansion.

This Friday, we'll be making folded and glued paper pumpkins. Using a premade template, you'll fold and cut your paper then glue all the pieces together and unfold them to make a 3D pumpkin shape. Twist up another piece of paper to form the stem, then choose from a few leaf styles and cut one out with the Cricut. When you're finished, you'll have a festive paper pumpkin that you can display in your home.

Free. One craft per person. Project available while supplies last.

Registration is recommended but not required. Drop-ins are welcome, but if you register ahead of time you will receive a reminder email the day before the event.

Ages 7 and up. All children must be supervised by a guardian. If you think that you will need extra assistance to complete this project, please bring a support person to assist you.

We will start with a giggling good read of Pete the Cat. Five Little Pumpkins, then jump into a whole patch of pumpkin fun! Kids will get to roll and squish playdough and stamp their name, make their own rainbow-colored mini pumpkins, measure both round and tall pumpkins, build a structure strong enough to hold five whole pumpkins, and dig inside a real pumpkin to discover what is hiding inside!

This program is recommended for families with children ages 3-6. Registration is NOT required.

Free and open to the public.
Sponsored by the Friends of the Erie County Library.
