For Children
Twice a month, pop in for Stay and Play. Children ages 6 and under will have a great time playing and creating with Duplos, puppets, a play kitchen, basketball hoops, crafts, games and more. Stay and Play ends with a mini bubble dance party. It’s a wonderful way for kids and their caregivers to socialize and have fun.
The Evesham Library is also pleased to announce our new Baby Time! Baby Time begins with singing, clapping, and stories. Afterward, babies will have a chance to continue the fun while playing with special toys during free time.
For Tweens and Teens
Can you play and read at the same time? Yes, you can at the First Chapter Club! Come listen to the first chapter of a new book. Then, create a craft or play a game related to the story we just read. If you like the book, you can check it out that night!
Get crafty with the Cozy Crochet Club. Learn different stitches and designs as you chat with fellow crafters. All materials will be provided.
Anime Club is a great time if you’re a fan of anime or manga. Watch an anime series with fellow lovers of all things anime.
