Your little one will enjoy a variety of games, toys, activities, and art experiences while making new friends and developing important social skills. Ages 1 to 4 preferred; open play, semi-supervised.

Play is the work of childhood! We offer games and experiences that help to develop skills such as sorting, matching, learning shapes and colors, building, making music, dramatic play, and more. We have simple art/craft activities as well, for practicing scissor skills, drawing and coloring, and using art materials. This program will be semi-supervised by library staff. Stay as little or as long as you like.


Did you know that the United Disabilities Services in Akron has a Toy Resource Center where you can get a membership and borrow toys and other materials?

About the branch

It's not unusual for customers to take a few moments out of their busy day to relax and read in the comfortable chairs beside the Portage Lakes Branch Library's large windows, enjoying the natural light and the beautiful views of flora and fauna. Visitors from surrounding communities—Coventry, New Franklin, Green, Clinton, Canal Fulton, Barberton, and Massillon—join local residents in visiting the Portage Lakes Branch Library to enjoy NatureConnect, learning-through-play and storytime programming, crafting opportunities, book discussions, arts and history informational programming, and more.

With rich book, music, and movie resources, Portage Lakes Branch Library has something for everyone of every age. Computers, WiFi, printing, copying, scanning, and faxing round out the services available at the Portage Lakes Branch Library, making it a one-stop spot for all your learning, business, and entertainment needs and interests.
