Spike Welcomes You to the Kids Corner


Welcome to the Stow-Munroe Falls Public Library Children's Dept!

   We invite children and parents to enjoy our large collection of books for children and young adults. We offer learning tools including Playaway Views, games and Leap Tags, as well as DVD's and audio books for kids.
   We think reading is so important that we have devoted our entire second floor to serving children and their parents with great reading and learning opportunities. Weekly events include storytimes, crafting and educational presentations. Kids can also learn to use the computer in several classes, and even learn to use an iPad!
   Everyday access to computers is part of our mission, and if parents approve it, children can use our top-of-the-line computer technology for learning, games and printing.
   Check out our Children's Events calendar to learn about upcoming programs, or ask our Children's librarians. We look forward to your next visit!

What’s Playaway View:

Read with a Book Pal

fourkids

School-aged children who are reading will be paired with a teen to explore and read books together this summer. This program will take place in July and pairs will be asked to schedule four meetings during the month. Teen mentors, who must have completed the 7th grade, will be reading pals and not tutors. Together they will select and read books here at the library.

Fill out a form with your name, phone number and school. You will be given a Reading Passport. As you read, you will receive stamps from each continent, until your passport is completed. For the hours that you read, you will win prizes, and be entered in our Grand Prize Drawing!
