Nortonville Public Library

Third Annual Frankentoys Event
2023-10-24 14:00 - 17:00 (America/Chicago) | Nortonville Public Library, 407 Main St, Nortonville, KS, 66060, United States
No school the week before Halloween means that we’re making Frankentoys at the library! School-aged kids and up (or smaller kids without a parent or teen to help) are welcome to come make their own creation using dolls and stuffed animals. We’ll have duct tape, safety pins, and sewing supplies available for their use depending on age and skill levels.

We’ll also have some treats for everyone to enjoy while their creativity flows into their spooky (or not!) Frankentoys!

4th Annual Frankentoys Event
2024-10-30 16:00 - 18:00
When the kids are out of school, we’re having our fourth annual FRANKENTOYS event! We will have stuffed animal/doll parts to put together, plus (not scary) Halloween movies and snacks. The “tools” the kids/teens use to put their creatures together will depend on their skill levels….there will be needles and thread, duct tape, safety pins etc. If your child needs a lot of help, please send them with a teen or adult, as we will probably have a large group to assist.

If you have stuffies or dolls that you no longer need/want, we’d love to take them! You can drop them off in the entryway or city hall if the library isn’t open. Or, if a high schooler you know needs community service, send them our way! It takes a village, THANK YOU!

Teens and adults welcome. Please RSVP to secure your spot!
