Programs for Toddlers and Preschoolers (about 5 & under)
We offer various programs for our youngest friends and their caregivers! Check the calendar for exact dates. We do much of our programming year-round, but do take breaks from time to time.
No registration is required to attend these programs, but we do appreciate a “heads-up” if a daycare or large group is coming so we have enough supplies!

We are proud to share that our Music Mondays program won the 2025 Best Practices Award from the Pennsylvania Library Association!
Fun Under Four!
At certain times of the year, we offer Fun Under Four, a play-based, multi-week program for children 4 and under and their caregivers. Each week, members of the community join us to offer information on topics that may include nutrition, speech & language, child development, movement & music, and literacy.
The Youth Services Department has a play area that is available for children and their families. It has a kitchen area, toys, puzzles, games, and more. There are also games and activities for older children nearby.
