Children are invited to come and refine their reading skills with the most engaged audience imaginable: a therapy dog!
All children are welcome to come and read to a therapy dog! Join Willie Nelson or Skye and practice your reading skills. Therapy dogs are gentle, non-intimidating listeners who are always happy to hear a story (or 10!) from readers of all skill levels. Reading aloud to a dog has proven to be a useful means of encouragement for reluctant readers.

If you are a kid who likes bricks, blocks, and , then you should come join the Building Buddies Brigade!
The community room is open weekly to allow children to get to know each other and play together using Edinboro's extensive supply of building materials. There's a room full of building toys and enough space for everyone to have fun making something (and of course, knocking it down!). KEVA blocks, Lincoln Logs, Bankers Box Bricks and more will be available. Children of all ages are welcome, and parents can enjoy the chance to meet other parents in the community. Recommended age is 1 to 6 years old, although older children can accompany younger siblings.
