CHILDREN'S PROGRAMS

Welcome to the North Miami Beach Public Library’s Children's Programming page!

Browse through the events below, register for upcoming programs, or learn when you can just walk in and join us. We’re always glad to see you!

Our patrons under the age of thirteen are also welcome in the Marjorie Foley Children's Room, where they can join our children's librarian in reading and storytelling, color or make crafts, focus on homework, and enjoy games.

Please note that our Library is equipped with a Sensory Room for children with disabilities or who may need to leave the public area for short periods of time. The Sensory Room includes a weighted blanket, soft and comfortable furniture, stim and activity toys, and creative seating, and may be reserved online or requested when not in use by visiting the librarian's desk in the Children's Room.

If you are interested in enrolling your child in one of the Library's formal educational programs, please visit the Educational Programs page for more information!
