Southington Kids' Place

Southington Kids' Place The Children's Department of the Southington Public Library & Museum. Southington, Connecticut. Love books? Adore movies? Itching to try out an awesome idea?

Then the Southington Library is THE place to be. Ask the friendly librarians at the Children's Department desk questions, have a chat about your latest read, hang out with Mr. Bear, or sign up for a program. All our programs are free to attend; though our more popular programs do require you to sign up beforehand and to put down a refundable $3/6 deposit (which you get back when you attend the pro

gram! It just saves your spot!)

Questions? Shoot us a message here, or come see us at the Children's Services Desk! We're also kind of tech savvy...won't you check us out? Instagram: southington_library
