Booktacular Pumpkin Decorating Contest

Every year we participate in the Booktacular Pumpkin Decorating Contest at the Carbondale Public Library. It's so fun to hear what book characters children love best! Today they each got their pumpkins, chose their book characters, made a planning sketch, and turned in a supply list to me (younger children had the assistance of older children to scribe for them).

Now I am looking over all of the supply requests and seeing what I need to purchase!
