While most of the furry guests stayed up all night, Snoopy and Silvery Kitty were tuckered out - so they decided to get some shut eye. A total of fifteen special stuffed animal guests, including a whale, tiger and unicorn came for the first ever Stuffed Animal Sleepover at the Lafayette Library and Learning Center.
Youth Services Librarian and party hostess Jenna Skinner reports that the guests "behaved pretty well, for the most part;" they had storytime, did some coloring, read books and ate brownies. No evidence of pillow fights or toe-nail painting so far, and even if they trashed the place - they did a thorough job cleaning up the mess. Perhaps the guests all agreed that what happens in the library - stays in the library.
The stuffed animal owners, pint size library patrons, were each given a photo of their critter to take home when they picked up their respective animals the following day. Skinner said it was great fun and she'll definitely host a sleepover again.
