All children’s programs are free at the library! No registration is required. Unless otherwise stated, all programs run all year long.
The first, second, third, fourth, and fifth Wednesdays of the month at 10 AM feature readaloud stories followed by a craft for toddlers and pre-schoolers. The Children’s Story Hour runs all year long, even during the summers. Storytime is designed to help children develop early literacy and fine motor skills and stimulate play and curiosity through readalouds, finger plays, crafts, and poems. Can’t make it every week? Drop in as your schedule allows!
Sponsored by the Lebanon County Library System, these engaging storytimes for babies ages birth to two years old feature an interactive storytime filled with games, songs, stories, and more—all of which helps babies develop early emergent literacy skills and prepares them to participate in the library’s Children’s Story Hour. A parent or caregiver must be present with children during class, and siblings are welcome to attend! These programs are free; no registration is required, but space is limited and participation is on a first come, first serve basis. Smart Start Storytime meets at Matthews Public Library on Mondays at 10:30 AM when in session. The complete schedule of Smart Start Storytimes at all Lebanon County public libraries is available here.
