The Children's Department of the Niagara Falls Public Library has a wide range of programmes, services and resources available for you. The early years programmes for children encourage socialization, positive interaction between adults and children, and a gentle introduction to books, music and future learning. Programmes for older children include reading club, guest speakers and entertainers as well as seasonal crafts and activities. Enjoy annual events such as Halloween parades and parties, Christmas trim-a-tree and Easter Egg colouring. We also have visits from your favourite storybook characters.

The Children's Department publishes one main brochure per year, and seasonal inserts are available for Autumn, Winter, March Break, Spring and Summer. These list all programmes and all special events for children at all four locations of the Niagara Falls Public Library. If you are unable to visit the library to pick up a brochure the same information is always available on this website.
