Party like a Princess at Mentor Library

Lila coordinates her cupcake with her crown during the princess party at Mentor Library.

Every year, Mentor Library hosts a tea party in May. Two years ago, our theme was Pinkalicious. Last year, we had a practically perfect Poppins party.

This year we tried to top ourselves with a princess party!

Grace, Abby and Meghan pause to pose while making their magical mirrors.

We served the kids tea, finger sandwiches, and cupcakes while they made hennins (those conical princess hats) and mirrors (so they can ask who’s the fairest.)

We also played Princess Bingo and Pin the Kiss on the Frog.

Natalie tries to plant a lip print on the frog while blindfolded.

And this is a library; so, of course, there was a story time. Ms. Mary and Ms. Kim from our Children's Department performed Leah Wilcox's Falling for Rapunzel.

Ms. Mary narrated and Ms. Kim performed as Rapunzel.

Even if you missed the party, there's still plenty of fun to come. Check out the online calendar for more programs and events at all three of Mentor Library's branches.
