Collage of images for weekly challenges

Are you ready for a challenge? We have prepared a different online activity for every day of the week to keep you busy and entertained. We will provide you with a prompt, and you will have a week to complete your project. We will choose a winner for a great prize every week.

Full details of the challenge will be available on our Program and Event Calendar.

Monday: Writing challenge

Calling all writers! Explore your imagination at home! We will post a prompt or challenge, you have a week to get inspired and write something. We will feature the winning story each week on our library's blog and social media. 

Tuesday: Costume contest

Unleash your creativity by using everyday household items to recreate iconic book covers! We will post a picture of the book cover and you can use mops, cardboard, spatulas, or even the kitchen sink to recreate it. 

Wednesday: Comic club

Comic lovers unite! Make and share your comics. Join our Facebook group PMPL Comic Club, look for the prompt on Wednesdays at 2pm, and draw a comic based on the prompt, and share it with the group.

Thursday: Coding challenge

Hey fellow coders! Join us for our weekly Scratch coding challenges. Each week we will provide you with a project idea or a coding problem to solve. 

Friday: Kids write a play

Kids can become the next Shakespeare by writing a story or play (no limits to how silly!). We will have a weekly challenge that will have five words or objects that must be included in your play. We will pick a winner and our staff will act it out for you.

Saturday: Online scavenger hunt

Love the in-library scavenger hunt for kids? Now try it at home! Visit our Facebook page every Saturday. Starting at 9am, we will give you the clues in the form of a riddle every 15 minutes. You take a picture of each of your answers and submit them as a comment by 4pm. We will randomly choose a winner at the end of the day! 

Sunday: Mad lib

We need a noun. We need an adjective. Provide your list of words to fill in the blanks and see who can come up with the silliest story. 

Ready for your challenge? Head over to our Program and Event Calendar and see what today's activity is.
