Description
For the last five years, Mt. Lebanon Library’s Children’s Department has challenged kids and families to create a book-themed diorama using marshmallow Peeps®. We are excited to continue the tradition virtually for its sixth year and with one major change… we are adding an Adult Category! So let your imagination run wild and see what you can create with those fluffy, sugary bundles of gooey goodness.

FREEHow
Here’s what to do: Create the diorama (a shoebox works as a wonderful staging area). Take a well-lit photo encompassing as much of the diorama as possible, and send it to childrenslibrary@einetwork.net by March 31 with the following information:
- Diorama Title
- Category (Kids: grade 5 and younger (minimal adult help), Teens: grade 6th-12th, Family: mixed ages or adult help, Adult).
- Contact info (in case you win)
In early April, after the submission deadline, we will post the images online so the public can vote for the best—or, as we like to call it, “The Peep-le’s Choice Award.” The lucky winners will be announced in April and each winner will receive a fabulous basket of goodies.
