The Ipswich Public Library is hosting a Pajama Drive in collaboration with Massachusetts Libraries, the Boston Bruins, and Cradles to Crayons from February 14 to March 14, 2026! We are looking for NEW pajamas in size 12-18 months through adult medium. Please choose pajamas without references to: family members, local businesses/special events, holidays, or sports teams other than New England professional teams. Donations of children’s socks and underwear are also accepted. The community is invited to participate by spreading the word, sharing a poster, or even collecting new pajamas with their schools, businesses, or civic groups! Cradles to Crayons has also set up an Amazon wish list that you can purchase pajamas through directly, to be sent straight to those who need them! This is a great time of year to purchase new children’s pajamas as they are often on sale. And please, remember that big kids like new pajamas too! Let’s bring the comfort of warm, new pajamas to children who may not have access to them, so they can go off to sleep feeling safe and warm. Additionally, the last day of the Pajama Drive (March 14) is the date of the Early Childhood Info Fair, which highlights local schools, public and private, including Ipswich Public Elementary schools, and agencies that provide programming and services to families with young children. That event will be held from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at the Ipswich Town Hall. Call Laurie Collins in the Children’s Room at 978-412-8713 EXT: 1605 with any questions or email: lcollins@ipswichlibrary.org.
