NIAGARA, Wis. — Calling all kids and their cuddly companions — the Niagara Public Library will host its annual Stuffed Animal Sleepover, a magical event that brings a child’s favorite stuffed friend to life in new and imaginative ways.

Drop off the child’s stuffed animal — ideally, one they can part with for a day or two — at the Niagara Public Library starting at 9 a.m. Monday through noon Tuesday.

On Tuesday night, these lucky stuffed animals will embark on an overnight adventure in the library, filled with fun and a little mischief, all captured on camera by the library staff.

Participants are invited to join the staff at the library at 10 a.m. Wednesday for a brunch and reunion party, where they can enjoy a delicious meal, reunite with the child’s stuffed animal, and watch a special video of the stuffed animals’ antics during their sleepover.

“This delightful event is free and open to children of all ages. It’s a unique way to celebrate the joy of storytelling, imagination and friendship — both human and plush,” said Rebecca Livick, librarian.

“The Stuffed Animal Sleepover has become a beloved tradition at the Niagara Public Library, offering kids the chance to see the library in a whole new way while creating lasting memories.”
