On September 24, 2025, several Jacksonville Public Library branches will be running free children's programs throughout the day. Activities differ by location and can include story times, crafts and family friendly programming, so check the branch near you to see what they have on the schedule.
It's a relaxed, low key way for kids to poke around books, make something messy and enjoy a few hours of organised fun without anyone needing to sing on key. Bring a sense of curiosity, a pair of hands ready for glue and maybe a spare snack for the trip home.
