Fall is here, and so are new Library programs for every age! Here’s a quick peek at what we have to offer kids and families as the weather cools off:
Storytimes & Early Learning

For the littles, our Stepping Stones to Milestones story-time series continues as the perfect way to get your baby, toddler, or
preschooler (or all three!) thinking, learning, and building the foundation of their literacy development. We’ve even started doing a few story-times at offsite locations. Don’t miss:
- Stories at Sunset – East Shore Area Library (evening storytime)
- Mathamagical Storytime – Northern Dauphin Library
- Once Upon a Rainbow – 1st Saturdays at the LGBT Center of Central PA
- Stories at Midtown – 2nd Saturdays at Midtown Scholar Bookstore
After-School Adventures

Do your school-age children need something to do after school? We’ve got something for that too. Check out these hands-on programs:
- Owls are a Hoot! – Learn about owls & dissect pellets
- Engineering Simple Bots – Build & test mini-robots
- PA Geology Rocks! – Explore Pennsylvania’s rocks & minerals with DCNR
Check the Fall Compass or DCLS.org/Events for dates and locations.
Teens Take Over

Are your teenagers totally bored with their wardrobe this new school year? Looking for other creative activities to keep your young people engaged? No worries!
Fresh looks & creative outlets await:
- Teen Fall Clothing Swap – Saturday, Sept. 20 (12–4 PM) at East Shore Area Library
- Coloring for Teens – Chill afternoons with color & creativity
- Zines for Teens – Create & share your own mini-magazines
There’s More!
This is just a sample of all the fun waiting for you at The Library this fall. Visit the DCLS Events page or stop by your local Library to explore the full calendar of programs and events.
