Children's Department Events
In addition to our ongoing programs
throughout the year, the Children's Department of the Upper Merion Township
Library hosts a number of free events for their patrons and their families.
These entertaining and educational programs are designed to appeal to
different age groups and encourage a love of books and reading. They are
also lots of fun! The children's department also sponsors several contests
for kids to exercise their creativity and win prizes!
